  • Lead investigations into incidents, near misses and quality issues, implementing corrective actions where required.

Stakeholder & Client Management

  • Act as the primary day-to-day contact for clients, consultants and key stakeholders.
  • Build strong relationships with DNO representatives and project partners.
  • Attend progress meetings and provide clear reporting on project performance, risks and opportunities.
  • Manage customer and public interface issues relating to outages, access arrangements, traffic management and environmental considerations.

Resource and Team Leadership

  • Provide leadership and direction to site teams and project delivery personnel.
  • Support workforce planning and resource allocation across multiple projects.
  • Mentor junior engineers, supervisors and project coordinators.
  • Drive a culture of continuous improvement, accountability and operational excellence.
