Key responsibilities include developing project scopes, estimates, schedules, risk assessments, and execution plans; reviewing engineering designs, specifications, drawings, and technical submissions; managing tendering and procurement activities; and providing technical direction during construction. You will monitor progress, costs, quality, safety, and compliance, identify and resolve technical or commercial issues, and oversee change control, claims, and contract administration. The role will also involve coordinating inspections, testing, commissioning, handover documentation, and lessons-learned activities.
