• Ensuring all sites are appropriately resourced — both internally and across the supply chain.
• Monitoring the performance of subcontractors and supply chain partners, ensuring adherence to programme and contractual expectations.
• Attending operations meetings and producing relevant project reports.
• Ensuring all properties and works meet contract specification standards and retrofit compliance requirements, enabling timely lodgements in line with client deadlines.
• Minimum 7 years' experience within the construction industry
