Ensure that construction activities and operational readiness efforts are synchronized with these teams to prevent any negative impact on operational traffic and maintain smooth airport operations.
  • Project Delivery Leadership: Lead project delivery teams to ensure that projects are completed safely, efficiently, and on time. Represent the programs at relevant approval and update boards, providing clear and comprehensive updates on progress and addressing any issues that arise.
  • Innovative Problem-Solving: Develop creative solutions to maintain the high intensity of Gatwick's airfield operations while managing intrusive construction activities. This involves strategic planning and innovative thinking to minimize disruptions and ensure continuous operational efficiency.
