– Liaise professionally with the client, providing clear updates on work status, priorities and completion

– Produce KPI and performance reporting for internal management and client review meetings

– Analyse recurring failures and backlog trends, and support continuous improvement initiatives across the contract

– Support project and improvement works as directed, including quotation and material procurement

– Represent the company in a professional manner at all times and work in line with company KPIs

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

– Strong technical background with the ability to work independently and prioritise a busy workload

– Excellent organisational skills and a disciplined approach to data and record keeping

– Good communication skills and a confident, professional, client-facing manner

– A team player who works closely with engineers, subcontractors and the client to maintain high standards

WHAT WE OFFER
