  • Managing client expectations through both informal and formal assessments, maintaining a professional demeanor to foster positive working relationships.
  • Formulating and integrating project strategies that align with the company's sustainability goals.
  • Conducting regular progress monitoring and reporting, identifying potential risks and opportunities, and implementing proactive and corrective measures as necessary.
  • Encouraging continuous professional development for yourself and your team to ensure technical proficiency, applying best practices, and driving ongoing improvements.
  • Promoting a collaborative approach to ensure a smooth transition from preconstruction to operational phases.
