Jane Proctor, Director Operations
Overseeing the commercial aspects of running hundreds of projects a year across twenty-four countries, seventeen different vertical markets and invoicing in six different countries keeps Jane busy. The same is true in managing staff across three continents in four different time zones.
Ensuring that all projects are on-track and on budget, using BCM’s real-time project management system, in close relation with the practice heads and the company’s finance team, is a cornerstone of BCM’s success.
