• High attention to detail and strong problem-solving skills.
• Proficient in inspection reporting, quality documentation, and record management.
• Knowledge of HSE requirements as they relate to construction quality activities.
• Compliance with approved drawings and specifications, reduction in rework and quality-related delays, timely issuance and closure of NCRs, and accuracy and completeness of inspection and quality records; effective supervision and mentoring of staff members to achieve key performance indicators.
• This role is site-based in active construction environments and may require extended working hours, weekend work, or mobility between project areas.
• Adhoc tasks may be assigned if needed.
• Can start IMMEDIATELY.
