The BI Associate will ensure that capital forecasts are disciplined, transparent, and aligned with project execution realities, while equipping leadership with clear, decision-ready insight into cost drivers, risks, and funding implications. This role is expected to leverage AI tools and modern analytics platforms to move beyond static reporting and toward dynamic, always-on intelligence.

• Build and maintain AI-assisted dashboards that surface variance trends proactively, reducing reliance on manual report generation and enabling faster decision cycles.
• Change Order & Cost Curve Monitoring:
• Partner with Construction and internal estimating teams to review change orders and assess financial impact relative to baseline budgets.
• Track and refine cost curves over the life of projects, improving forecast accuracy through trend analysis and performance benchmarking.
• Leverage AI and data tooling to identify patterns in change order history, enabling predictive cost modeling and earlier risk flagging.
• Treasury & Project-Level Financing Support:
• Collaborate with Treasury and Fundraising teams to provide accurate project-level capital deployment reporting and forward-looking cash forecasts.
• Support lender, investor, and capital partner reporting requirements related to development budgets, spend progress, and funding utilization
