  • Assist with the technical review and close-out of ITP quality packs.
  • Identify blockers and issues early, suggest potential solutions, and enable appropriate corrective action to be considered and taken to protect programme delivery.
  • Collaborate with the Commercial team to notify any changes to the process, such as drafting Early Warning Notices and General Communications.
  • Manage any H&C matters through the Project Level 1 and Route-wide Level 0 escalation process as required.
  • Follow handover, completions, and commissioning policies, procedures, and guidance in the Business Management System, ensuring required deliverables are understood and tracked.
  • Establish and maintain effective and collaborative formal and informal relationships within the wider C23 Handover & Completions community and share best practice.
  • Support adequate and effective audit processes.
  • Promote best practice and drive innovative solutions, business strategies, and project solutions.
  • Maintain a relationship with Parent Company functional specialists and foster collaborative working practices.
  • Champion the 'Speak Up' and 'Choices' programme.
About You
