  Manages submissions, reviews, approvals, and revisions in accordance with nuclear-project requirements, maintaining data integrity and ensuring accurate record-keeping throughout the project lifecycle.

• Continuous Improvement & Process Optimisation

  Leads continuous-improvement initiatives by gathering feedback, diagnosing inefficiencies, and implementing enhanced information-management workflows, digital practices, and reporting processes.

  Identifies opportunities to automate or simplify document control and information-exchange processes, improving productivity and compliance.

  Acts as a key liaison for information exchange, facilitating clear communication and collaboration between internal project teams, external consultants, and nuclear regulators.

  Provides guidance and training to project teams on BIM standards, CDE usage, and information-management best practices to ensure consistent delivery quality.

• Compliance, Quality & Audit Readiness
