Prepare and submit budget documentation for award modifications, revisions, and other financial adjustments.

Coordinate with sponsored programs and administrative stakeholders to address export controls, publication restrictions, and other potential project risks, ensuring all necessary approvals are obtained.

Identify and resolve operational challenges, implement solutions, and contribute to continuous process improvement initiatives.
