About this Position

The EDC Productivity Manager (“EPM”) is responsible for the reporting of “productivity management” of all key OSP & ISP Engineering/Design/Construction/Technical Operational (“EDC”) tasks associated with market builds and service delivery. To ensure that EDC consistently meets “On-Time/On-Budget'' expectations, the EPM’s primary objective is to provide proactive, real-time tracking and intelligence reporting of EDC deliverables that must be completed sequentially in order to meet daily, weekly, quarterly EDC OKR’s. To accomplish this, the EPM will develop, manage, oversee and provide “real-time” Key Performance Indicator (KPI) utilizing Vitruvi (Business Intelligence Tool) of all deliverables and milestones that must be completed but not limited to the project/workforce/inventory/finance management. The EPM will also identify potential risk(s) associated with a deliverable not being met, apprise relevant stakeholders so action can be taken to mitigate risk. Supporting Underline’s accountability culture, the EPM must be proficient in using Vitruvi, Qlik, Vetro and/or other EDC BI tools.
