What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead Project delivery end-to-end—strengthening procurement-to-commissioning schedules, vendor/contractor accountability, and on-site safety—while partnering with cross-functional teams to proactively manage cost, delay, and Project risks.

Project Coordinator with five-plus years of construction and infrastructure project management experience at First Balfour Inc., one of the Philippines' largest engineering and construction firms.

I specialize in CPM-based schedule management from procurement through commissioning, cross-functional team coordination, Bills of Quantities preparation, document control, and construction budget monitoring using MS Project, MS Excel, and Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC).

Selected achievements from my career:

Accelerated project delivery by 30 days through improved baseline framework review, schedule enforcement, and contractor accountability
Reduced project costs by 3 percent by designing custom MS Excel budget-monitoring and forecasting tools
Managed cross-functional coordination across 120-person project teams including engineers, subcontractors, and vendors
Developed CPM scheduling frameworks and project controls systems for large-scale capital infrastructure projects

I hold a BS in Mechanical Engineering and certifications in Construction Site Supervision and Construction Occupational Safety and Health (COSH).

Available for full-time remote roles and project-based contracts. Time zone: UTC+8 (Philippines). Australian, UK, and US employers welcome.
