• Scheduled and managed the replacement of a 132/33 kV 45 MVA transformer with a 132/33 kV 50 MVA transformer to address asset condition and prepare for future demand increases, maintaining a $70 million budget despite project delays
• Coordinated installation of taller coolers for the new transformer, planning necessary rebuilds of blast walls to maintain fire separation from adjacent structures
• Oversaw the installation of a new Automatic Voltage Control (AVC) panel for both transformers, and supervised the connection of new 33 kV tails from the transformer to the switchboard
• Aligned outage schedules to occur during the summer months (April – October) in order to meet operational deadlines and ensure the transformer could be energized by October
• Developed a 6-month project timeline, including a 1-month period for testing and commissioning
• Managed procurement timelines to align with project milestones, with 7 months for transformer delivery, 4 months for AVC panel procurement, and 4 months for 33 kV cable availability

• Led scheduling and coordination for Project Medusa, an 8-week initiative with a $50 million budget to design and implement an RPA platform for tracking candidate attendance across multiple projects, maintaining zero time tolerance
• Engaged project team members and stakeholders to ensure the timely completion of deliverables and adherence to project milestones
• Collaborated with Business Support, Programme Support, and Programme Office teams to develop a comprehensive platform that addresses user needs and improves candidate management
• Implemented modern RPA technology with features such as automated notifications, reporting, remote accessibility, and a user-friendly design, allowing for ongoing enhancement of platform capabilities
• Delivered a solution that increased efficiency, reduced manual tracking efforts, and enabled data-driven decision-making for users across the organization
