Ideally, you have a relevant degree in construction or commercial management and demonstrable experience in subcontractor management. A strong commercial awareness and a thorough understanding of NEC3 forms of contract—particularly ECC NEC3 Option C—are essential, along with sound knowledge of relevant construction and contract law.
