They develop and implement growth strategies, build and maintain relationships with clients, contractors, and other stakeholders, ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations, and manage risks. The President is also responsible for ensuring the company's financial performance and profitability, including budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting.
