• Provide executive oversight of project billing, forecasting, procurement, and financial reporting.

• Coordinate project staffing and the deployment of marine equipment, barges, cranes, pile-driving spreads, subcontractors, suppliers, and specialty marine resources.

• Oversee project planning, scheduling, critical-path milestones, procurement, project reviews, change orders, contract administration, risk management, and project closeout.

• Identify project risks and opportunities and work with project leadership to develop appropriate mitigation and execution strategies.

• Support estimating, preconstruction, business development, client relationships, and pursuit strategies for future work.

• Drive continuous improvement across project operations and promote best practices throughout the organization.

• Serve as an executive representative of Orion with owners, engineers, contractors, port authorities, USACE, NAVFAC, municipalities, DOT agencies, industrial clients, and other key stakeholders.

• Maintain the confidentiality of proprietary company, project, and client information.
