Responsibilities will include:

  • Coordinating day-to-day construction activities, subcontractors and trade interfaces
  • Managing RFIs, reviewing construction drawings and resolving technical and design queries
  • Working closely with Site Managers and Foremen to maintain program, quality and safety standards
  • Coordinating inspections, ITPs, QA documentation and the close-out of outstanding works

  • Monitoring construction progress, identifying potential delays and helping implement practical solutions
  • Supporting procurement, material coordination and subcontractor package delivery
  • Taking ownership of site issues and contributing to broader project delivery decisions
