  • Coordinating with both internal and external stakeholders and consultants to ensure successful project execution.
  • Advocating for strong health and safety leadership throughout all project phases, from initiation to completion.
  • Conducting regular site visits and leading the construction phase, while integrating with other engineering disciplines as necessary.
