  • Supervision and Mentorship: You will be responsible for checking the work of others and supervising junior staff, providing guidance and support as needed.
  • Collaboration: Work collaboratively with team members to foster strong relationships with clients and ensure effective communication throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Health and Safety Awareness: Familiarity with health, safety, and welfare regulations, such as the Construction, Design and Management Regulations, is essential to maintain a safe working environment.
