Vendor Management & Quality Assurance:Prepare RFPs for architectural, engineering, contractor, and specialty services. Lead competitive selection processes, negotiate terms, and oversee contractor performance throughout construction to ensure compliance with contractual requirements, quality standards, and client expectations while maintaining positive working relationships.

Design Phase Leadership & Regulatory Compliance:Guide clients through conceptual development, schematic design, design development, and construction documentation phases with structured reviews and approvals at each milestone. Ensure deliverables meet banking industry requirements, ADA standards, building codes, and security specifications while coordinating with architects and engineers.

Documentation & Risk Management:Prepare comprehensive project documentation including charters, due diligence reports, meeting minutes, funding requests, status reports, and closeout packages in client-specified formats. Develop risk management plans, identify potential liabilities related to budget, schedule, quality, or compliance, and escalate concerns appropriately while implementing mitigation strategies.

Required Qualifications:
