Provide owner-side oversight of strategic delivery partners and coordinate project activities with internal teams, utilities, contractors, consultants, regulatory agencies, and other stakeholders.
Lead or support project agreement discussions and contracting strategies, including allocation of engineering, procurement, construction, construction management, and related responsibilities.
Monitor partner and program budgets, cash flow forecasts, schedules, risks, issues, commitments, performance metrics, and documentation throughout the project lifecycle.
Manage delivery at the program and portfolio level by balancing project sequencing, resource capacity, interdependencies, risk, and investment priorities across partner-led work.
Drive informed decision-making by identifying risks, constraints, resource needs, partner performance concerns, and execution priorities.
Prepare clear program updates, recommendations, and governance materials for senior management and executive stakeholders.
Lead consultant and contractor oversight, scope definition, project readiness, partner accountability, and continuous improvement of ATC's partner-led delivery capability.
Maintain clear accountability boundaries: this role owns program integration and delivery-partner performance, while Engineering and the Owner's Engineer retain technical governance, assurance, standards compliance, and engineering acceptance responsibilities.
