• Carrying out site-based activities such as surveys, inspections, and data collection to inform and refine the design process.

• Preparing calculations and documentation to demonstrate compliance with both client requirements and relevant legislation.

• Coordinating with other design professionals and contributing to the integration of services across projects.

• Attending meetings and design workshops, sharing insights and helping drive project delivery.

• Ensuring all solutions are aligned with current regulations, H&S standards, and best practice guidance.
