Jose Alejandro Marquez
@josealejandromarquez
Project Coordinator and operations leader keeping complex contracts on track.
What I'm looking for
I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) Project Coordinator and Operations professional with 7+ years managing government and private-sector contracts in Panama. I coordinate the full project lifecycle—planning, execution, monitoring, and administrative closeout—so timelines and budgets stay aligned across multiple stakeholders. I also serve as a clear communications bridge by translating updates into written and verbal reports for management, clients, and field teams.
In each engagement, I handle the operational details that make projects succeed: bid/proposal documentation (pliegos), contract compliance, CRM administration, and billing coordination (including invoicing and accounts-receivable workflows). I’ve built internal systems for document version control and compliance tracking, and I create dashboards and reporting tables that improve visibility and accelerate decision-making. Comfortable in a fully remote, U.S.-business-hours environment (GMT-5 with full overlap with EST/CST), I’m available full-time Mon–Fri for a long-term role supporting U.S. teams and Spanish-speaking clients or partners.
