• Expansion Readiness and Portfolio Support — Support onboarding of new sites and inherited contracts, including CBA assimilation, bargaining preparation, and transition planning. Build scalable documentation standards and escalation protocols to support multi-site execution. Maintain financial awareness of wage, benefit, overtime, and retroactive pay risk.
