• Ensuring the highest standards of health, safety, and quality on site
• Leading project teams, subcontractors, and suppliers
• Coordinating with design engineers and supporting technical decision-making
• Acting as the primary interface with clients, DNOs, TSOs, and other stakeholders
• Mentoring project engineers and supporting team development
