- Identify a potential risk to your project, and propose a mitigation strategy.
- Design, develop and maintain a project's reporting dashboard, and communicate with key stakeholders on progress of the project.
- Obtain updates from multiple workstreams from Compliance, Engineering, and the business.
- Review a technical proposal, and verify that it meets our user and stakeholder goals; if it doesn't, challenge it.
- Motivate people to complete tasks on time - and, yes, chase them.
