• Prepare client invoices, track billing against the SOW, and proactively identify when funding increases are required based on field Production.

• Verify and track subcontractor invoices against revenue records to ensure the integrity of operational margin.

• Prepare and distribute daily/weekly production reports to management, highlighting milestones achieved and potential bottlenecks.

• Act as a professional liaison between the company, clients, and local authorities to resolve issues regarding construction schedules or permit delays.
