• Coordinating with multidisciplinary stakeholders (project, engineering, worksite teams, safety specialists, waste teams and other SMEs) to ensure logistics is embedded early and effectively
• Planning handovers into delivery, ensuring logistics requirements, constraints, planned movements and outstanding actions are clearly transferred to the delivery team
• Providing ongoing technical support during mobilisation/execution to maintain continuity and resolve emerging issues
