- Experience working with owners, developers, EPC or D&C contractors, original equipment manufacturers or engineering consultants.
- The confidence to lead multidisciplinary teams and manage complex technical and commercial interfaces.
- Strong commercial judgement and an ability to build trusted client relationships.
