• Coordinate multidisciplinary teams of engineers (process, mechanical, electrical, etc.), contractors, and suppliers, ensuring effective collaboration and communication throughout the project.
• Monitor project progress and performance, managing risks and implementing corrective actions as needed to keep the project on track and within budget.

• Proven ability to lead complex projects with multiple stakeholders and subcontractors, delivering results on time and on budget.
• Familiarity with project management methodologies and tools; PMP or PRINCE2 certification is a plus.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to interface with both technical and non‑technical parties.
