Working to tender specifications, contract documentation and technical drawings
Identifying risks, escalating issues and ensuring corrective action is taken where required
Undertaking building condition and dilapidation surveys to support asset management and project planning
Witnessing testing and commissioning of new installations and providing technical guidance to colleagues

To succeed in this role, you will be expected to:
Communicate effectively with contractors, consultants and internal teams, providing clear written and verbal technical advice
Work confidently with specifications, tender scopes, pricing documents and technical design drawings
Coordinate and manage contractors across multidisciplinary projects, reactive repairs, planned maintenance and PPM programmes
