The position leads or coordinates projects and programs from initiation through completion. It oversees planning, resourcing, staffing, scheduling, and execution, and manages project progress, risks, and issues. The Associate Project Manager provides regular stakeholder reporting and works to ensure delivery meets agreed requirements for scope, quality, reliability, timeline, and cost.
