Project Director TSI, APAC

Responsibilities

I. End-to-End Delivery and Contract Fulfillment Management for International Projects

1. End-to-End Delivery: Responsible for full-cycle delivery of international TSI projects (wind, solar, storage) from contract signing to final acceptance and end of warranty period, including EHS, quality, schedule, cost, and scope change management.
2. LTSA Fulfillment: Ensure on-site execution of Long-Term Service Agreements (LTSA) overseas, including spare parts, operation & maintenance, and performance guarantees.
3. Project Compliance Oversight: Supervise the contract fulfillment process of overseas projects to ensure compliance with local laws, internal controls, and export regulations; make final judgments on compliance risks in ambiguous areas.

II. Cross-Cultural Team and Organizational Capability Building

1. Team Building and Empowerment: Recruit, develop, and motivate cross-border project teams (Chinese + local staff); establish a replicable international delivery capability system.
2. Conflict Resolution: Conduct non-standard communication and conflict resolution among multi-cultural, multi-lingual, multi-stakeholder parties (clients, subcontractors, government, communities) to avoid project delays caused by cultural misunderstandings.

III. Resource Integration and Risk Decision-Making

1. Extreme Resource Allocation: Break routine procedures to urgently allocate manpower, machinery, and materials across regions and projects during global supply chain constraints or sudden on-site demands.
2. Risk Identification and Response: Identify and manage unstructured risks (e.g., sudden local policy changes, community protests, politicized customs clearance, sharp exchange rate fluctuations); develop non-preplanned response strategies.
3. Problem Solving: Personally lead the resolution of major on-site technical, commercial or legal issues (e.g., equipment seizure, labor strikes, performance non-conformity disputes) and make decisions with incomplete information.

IV. Process Optimization and Quality System Implementation

1. Process Adaptation: Drive localization adaptation of key contract fulfillment processes in international projects, avoiding mechanical execution; ensure processes serve fulfillment rather than hinder it.
2. EHS and Quality Implementation: Ensure genuine on-site implementation of international EHS and quality standards; organize spot audits and on-site training; drive closed-loop corrective actions for systemic deficiencies.

V. Business Objectives and Lessons Learned

1. Profit and Settlement: Participate in budget, schedule forecasting, and risk reserve assessment; safeguard project profit margins; lead final settlement and change claims.
2. Knowledge Capture: Organize project post-mortems, produce unstructured case studies (e.g., Ten Strategies for Addressing Strikes in Country X), and form organizational process assets.
