• Extensive experience within commercial or Industrial construction and fit out projects.
• Proven experience managing multiple high value M&E projects or contracts.
• Strong commercial, financial, technical and operational knowledge.
• Confident leadership, communication and organisational skills.
• A proactive, client-focused approach with strong commitment to quality.
