- Work closely with the project team to ensure smooth delivery, considering pupil segregation and phased handovers.
- Stakeholder & Client Management:
- Liaise with DFE representatives, consultants, and supply chain partners.
- Provide commercial leadership and strategic advice.
- Ensure compliance with all contractual and financial obligations.
