• Collaborate with construction, engineering, commissioning, planning, EHS, procurement, supply chain and project teams.
• Identify, record and drive quality issues through to effective close-out.
• Support root cause analysis and corrective action processes where required.

Inspection & Test Plans

• Develop, review and maintain Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs) and inspection checklists.
• Coordinate inspection requirements with construction and engineering teams.
• Track ITP approvals and ensure inspections are aligned with the construction programme.
• Monitor inspection status and identify potential delays or quality risks.
• Ensure inspection and testing records are accurately completed, reviewed and maintained.
• Coordinate inspection notifications and ensure relevant stakeholders are available when required.

• Support the project team in achieving a structured and efficient handover.
• Track outstanding documentation and actions through to completion.

Walkdowns & Snag Management

• Plan and coordinate quality walkdowns using project lookahead programmes.
• Manage W1, W2 and W3 walkdown notifications and turnover activities.
• Lead internal and third-party quality walkdowns.
• Conduct pre-test inspections using drawings, schematics, SLDs and P&IDs.
• Record, categorise and track defects, snags and outstanding works.
• Work closely with construction and subcontractor teams to drive timely close-out.
• Monitor planned versus actual walkdown and close-out performance.
• Provide regular updates on outstanding quality actions and project readiness.

Welding & Fabrication Quality

• Monitor weld traceability and associated quality documentation.
• Maintain weld logs and monitor welder qualifications and certification.
• Coordinate visual inspections and NDT requirements.
• Ensure heat maps, inspection records and relevant certification are maintained.
• Identify quality trends and elevate recurring issues where appropriate.
• Verify that fabrication and installation activities meet project quality requirements.

BIM, Data & Reporting

• Work closely with the BIM team to ensure accurate field data and project attributes.
• Maintain data integrity within BIM 360 / Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) and other project systems.
• Ensure quality issues are correctly categorised, assigned, tracked and closed.
• Support the implementation of equipment and asset tagging systems, including QR code tracking.
• Monitor quality dashboards and reporting systems.
• Track key quality KPIs and provide accurate progress reporting to project management.
• Support supply chain quality performance monitoring and corrective action plans.
• Ensure project quality records remain accurate and up to date.
