- Assist with maintaining site-specific plans including APP/JHAs, Environmental Plans, and QCPs.
- Help maintain project risk and opportunity logs, track action items, and support closeout activities.
- Assist in preparing weekly progress reports, three-week look-ahead schedules, risk logs, and cost/schedule metrics (CPI, SPI).
- Ensure all project documentation, correspondence, and reports are uploaded and maintained in the QGS OPS Platform (GCC High) with proper version control.
- Actively develop project management competencies with the goal of progressing into a Project Manager role.
- Participate in training, certifications, and mentoring opportunities supported by QGS.
