Drive timely resolution of cross-functional issues and tradeoffs, particularly where decisions within one asset or workstream affect overall Hub cost, schedule, risk, or commercial objectives. Develop recommendations and make decisions with incomplete information by clearly identifying assumptions, risks, alternatives, and information required to progressively reduce uncertainty. Establish effective project governance and communication rhythms and ensure project information, decisions, accountabilities, and milestones are clearly documented and understood. Prepare and deliver concise executive-level written, verbal, and presentation materials communicating project status, critical risks, recommendations, and decisions required. Represent the integrated Hub in discussions with customers, partners, utilities, governmental entities, consultants, and other external stakeholders as appropriate. Partner with individual asset and functional leaders while maintaining an independent, integrated perspective on what is required to successfully deliver the overall Hub. Proactively identify emerging risks and opportunities and drive mitigation or resolution before they affect critical project milestones.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
