- Interpret drawings, specifications, method statements and technical documentation.
- Work closely with project management and engineering teams to resolve operational and technical issues.
- Ensure compliance with health and safety, environmental and quality requirements.

About you
You will have substantial experience in a Superintendent, Site Manager or similar supervisory position, ideally within construction, engineering, infrastructure, utilities or another complex operational environment. A relevant technical qualification or recognised industry certification is desirable, together with a strong understanding of applicable legislation, safe systems of work and quality assurance processes.
You should be organised, resilient and capable of managing competing priorities in a demanding environment. Strong leadership, problem-solving and communication skills are essential, as is the ability to build effective working relationships at all levels.
