•

Proactively identify, track, and resolve risks and issues associated with projects, implementing mitigation strategies to prevent or minimize their impact.

•

Provide regular project performance reports encompassing status updates, progress evaluations, and risk assessments, identifying areas requiring intervention to ensure project success.

•

Advise and share knowledge with internal and external project stakeholders on project management best practices.
