Key Responsibilities

You will lead field remediation activities across operating projects, addressing quality issues, non-conformance reports (NCRs), failures and corrective actions. You will drive the investigation, resolution, verification and closure of non-conformances, ensuring all activities are properly documented and completed in line with quality requirements.

The role will involve managing field resources and subcontractors, including mobilisation, workforce planning and execution support. You will collaborate closely with Quality, Engineering, Procurement, Warranty and Project Management teams to investigate and resolve technical and operational issues.

You will also develop remediation plans, schedules, risk mitigation strategies and progress reports to support successful project delivery.
