  • Organise and lead PLOD/PLOW meetings, ensuring clear communication and follow‑up actions.
• Safety, Quality & Assurance
  • Undertake safety and assurance inspections aligned to the project’s HSPI requirements.
  • Support the identification and escalation of potential quality issues before they impact delivery.
  • Ensure the project maintains high standards in line with safety and nuclear culture expectations.
