Delivery Engine: Build, baseline, and own master project schedules. Ensure adherence to timelines across multiple high-end residential and commercial sites.

Margin Defense: Protect project gross margins. Review and approve all BOQs, closely manage

vendor pricing, and strictly control and document all change orders.

Scorecard Management: Run rigorous weekly reviews against the Execution Efficiency Scorecard. Report monthly metric performance directly to the Founders.

Client Management: Lead all major client communications during the execution phase. De escalate conflicts, manage expectations, and maintain client trust.

Team Mentorship: Mentor, structure, and grow the current Project Management team and lead recruitment for future execution hires
