Coordinating information between field teams, Project Managers, and internal departments
-
Supporting the day-to-day operations of the Project Controls and Processes Division
-
Helping improve departmental processes, systems, workflows, and controls
-
Assisting other Coordinators and the Project Controls Manager with departmental projects and initiatives
