• Read, interpret, and implement contractual requirements, maintaining appropriate project controls with support from the wider team.
• Take end-to-end responsibility for project deliverables—from initial scope, timings, and budgets through to final delivery.
• Proactively manage project costs and efficiencies, flagging risks to budget or timescales at the earliest opportunity.
• Produce Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS) aligned with project scope and work instructions.
• Work with project and site teams to ensure tooling, equipment, and project information are prepared and available on time.
• Oversee the management and safe return of site equipment and tooling.
• Provide onsite support across the UK and internationally, assisting with manpower, technical queries, and tooling requirements during project execution.

• Commitment to Continuous Improvement and high-quality project delivery.
• Experience supervising or supporting site teams (desirable).
• Willingness to travel and work onsite across the UK and internationally.
