* Produce detailed daily and weekly site reports.
* Raise quality, programme or safety concerns promptly and ensure appropriate corrective actions are implemented.
* Attend project meetings and liaise with contractors, consultants and internal stakeholders.

* Maintain a visible site presence throughout project delivery.
Requirements:
* Strong construction experience within the renewable energy sector.

* Previous experience working for either an EPC contractor or project owner.
