  • Developing and incorporating project strategies to achieve the company's sustainability objectives
  • Ensuring regular monitoring and reporting on progress, managing potential risks and opportunities, and instigating pre-emptive and corrective actions as required
  • Maintaining continuous professional development of yourself and your team to ensure appropriate technical awareness, implementing best practice and driving continuous improvement
  • Maintaining a 'one team' approach throughout to create a seamless transition from preconstruction to operations

    • Essential and Desirable Criteria

    For this multifaceted role, you will need proven experience of:

    • Exceptional leadership skills

    • Excellent time management skills

    • Communication skills
