• Stakeholder Engagement - Chair/attend package progress reviews, supplier meetings and interface workshops, ensuring actions are captured, owned and closed out.

• Governance & Compliance - Maintain accurate documentation, action logs and reporting in line with project controls and information management requirements.

• Continuous Improvement - Promote collaboration and consistent ways of working across procurement, commercial and project controls teams and delivery partners.Knowledge, Skills, & Experience:

Qualifications:

• Degree (or equivalent experience) in Project Management, Engineering, Commercial Management, Quantity Surveying, or related discipline.
