My proactive and reactive abilities allow for good planning and quick thinking, giving the project a continuous flow of productivity. I have managed a multitude of vessel projects, all of which presenting different challenges. As PM, It is my duty to oversee the entire project, from the commercial handover until the vessel departure.
