• Drive quality outcomes by administering Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs), managing QA/QC processes, resolving non-conformances and ensuring project documentation is completed accurately and within required timeframes.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, suppliers and subcontractors, fostering a collaborative, client-focused approach that supports successful project delivery and future business opportunities.
• Champion safety, environmental and regulatory compliance by supporting risk management activities, maintaining project records, investigating incidents, and ensuring all works are completed in accordance with rail industry standards, legislative requirements and DT Infrastructure policies.
