• Ensuring work is delivered safely, efficiently and to the required quality standards.
• Monitoring productivity, project progress and labour performance.
• Identifying project risks, variations, delays and design issues early.
• Communicating clearly with project managers and operations teams.
• Managing testing, commissioning, defects and project completion activities.
