• Identify risks and opportunities, ensuring that Tesla is making informed decisions and delivering the best value to the end customer.
• Build and sustain strong relationships with internal teams, clients, suppliers, and external partners to facilitate seamless project progression.
• Support smooth commercial handover from pre-construction into project delivery teams.
