Facilitate communication, lead meetings with agendas and action items, and collaborate with teams to ensure smooth project execution
Source and manage vendor partnerships including procurement, bid negotiations, rights and usage as applicable, drafting Master Service Agreements / Statements of Work and tracking invoicing through fund release and budget reconciliation

A proven track record of successfully managing complex projects involving multiple stakeholders and tight deadlines
