  • Maintaining high standards of workmanship and ensuring construction activities meet design specifications and quality requirements.
  • Working closely with planning, commercial, design and project management teams to overcome challenges and achieve project targets.
  • Monitoring progress, managing subcontractor performance and addressing issues before they impact delivery.
