• Coordinate with Design Studios, Fabrication Engineering, Model Shops, Paint, Vehicle Operations, and Program Teams to clarify scope, timing, and build readiness.
• Manage build requests and priorities, ensuring alignment with Studio leadership direction and key events (e.g., design reviews, leadership reveals, auto shows, media events).
• Develop and maintain standardized tracking tools, dashboards, and reports (e.g., build status, timing, open issues, risk/mitigation) for leadership reviews.
• Monitor build execution against plan, identify risks or conflicts early, and drive timely mitigation with cross-functional partners.
• Ensure all required vehicle and property information (content definition, bill-of-materials inputs, finishes, graphics, display needs, transport/storage needs) is captured and communicated.
• Coordinate vehicle movements and logistics for concept properties (e.g., preparation, staging, transport, storage, and return) in partnership with Vehicle Operations and Logistics.
• Support issue resolution and change management (e.g., late content changes, priority shifts, timing moves) with clear impact assessments and updated plans.
• Prepare and deliver regular status updates to Design leadership and DFO leadership, highlighting accomplishments, risks, decisions needed, and next steps.
• Help refine and document standard work and best practices for concept build coordination and tracking across the Design Center.
