• Identify any customer, technical or business requirements that cannot be met and promptly escape these to the Service Manager, ensuring they are documented and discussed with relevant stakeholders as required.
• Provide professional on-site and remote customer support throughout project delivery, acting as an effective point of contact for project-related matters.
• Work collaboratively with Service, Field Service, Operations, Technical, Sales, Contracts, Finance and other Glen Dimplex functions to resolve issues and enable successful project delivery.

• Support the introduction and implementation of new products, service propositions, operational processes and customer programmes where project management support is required.
