  • Create, maintain and organise comprehensive project documentation.
  • On conclusion of a project, conduct a detailed after-action review (AAR) to identify opportunities to improve project processes and outcomes, identifying areas for improvement and providing insights and learnings to the Delivery Director for the benefit of future projects.
