Ensure compliance with health & safety legislation, environmental requirements, contractual obligations, quality standards and company procedures.
Identify, assess and manage project risks, issues, dependencies, changes and opportunities, implementing mitigation and contingency plans as necessary.
Lead, coordinate and support project teams, including the delegation of responsibilities and management of staff, subcontractors and consultants.
Manage project costs and financial performance, including forecasting, budget control and reporting.
Produce and present project updates, progress reports and recommendations to senior management and key stakeholders.
Build and maintain strong business relationships that contribute to project success and future opportunities.
Conduct project reviews and lessons-learned exercises, promoting continuous improvement and the development of best-practice project management processes and tools.
Promote a positive safety culture and demonstrate leadership in line with company values and standards
