Maria Veronica Franco

Project Coordinator & Senior Operations Specialist with 15+ years of experience keeping complex workflows moving and removing obstacles that slow teams down. I bring structure, clarity, and alignment to projects by coordinating procurement, documentation, schedules, vendor communication, and financial records with precision and accountability.

I am the person who ensures nothing falls through the cracks.
When timelines are at risk, information is missing, approvals are delayed, or communication breaks down — I step in, untangle the bottleneck, and get things moving again. I anticipate issues early, resolve them calmly, and maintain continuity so teams can stay focused on execution.

My strength is seeing how the pieces fit together — people, processes, and systems — and adjusting the workflow so progress continues without friction or chaos.

Core Strengths:
Operational Workflow Leadership • Project Coordination • PMO & Program Support • Vendor & Procurement Alignment • Compliance & Documentation Governance • Budget & Margin Tracking • Cross-Functional Communication • Process Streamlining • Issue Resolution & Risk Mitigation

Technical Tools:
Oracle | Salesforce | SharePoint | SiteTracker | Ariba | Microsoft Office (Excel, Teams, Word, PowerPoint)

I am seeking Project Coordinator, Program/Grants Support, PMO Support, and Operations Specialist roles where I support execution, strengthen workflows, and help teams move forward with clarity and consistency (remote-friendly).
