    • Proactively interpret and assess subgrantee risks, provide technical assistance as necessary and surface and address issues.
    • Ensure agreements and amendments follow proper authorities and signatures and, where relevant, support multi‑party structures
    • Build and manage a master project plan (milestones, dependencies, risks, change control) spanning multiple awards and sub‑projects; lead recurring stand‑ups and cross‑functional reviews.
    • Develop and maintain an in‑depth understanding of funding mechanisms, funding requirements, budget conditions, and spending status for all grants and awards.
