• Guide and oversee drafter/designers throughout project development.
• Attend client meetings, design reviews, and municipal coordination meetings.
• Support preconstruction and construction teams with drawing revisions, RFIs, and field coordination.
• Monitor project progress and ensure deliverables meet quality standards and project deadlines.
• Maintain strong communication with both internal teams and external stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle.

• Manufacturing plants
