• Serve as primary onsite facilities contact, participate in governance forums providing SQDIP updates, communicate operational risks and recovery plans clearly, and build client trust through responsiveness and follow-through.

• Support minor projects, shutdown readiness, commissioning activities, root cause investigations, and CAPA development while identifying opportunities for standardization, reliability improvement, and operational effectiveness.

• Maintain consistent physical presence onsite, lead from the field through direct engagement and observation, demonstrate ownership of outcomes, and escalate operational, safety, and compliance risks promptly.
