• Monitor subcontractor performance and reconcile invoices against completed works.

Our client is seeking a candidate who brings both the technical knowledge and personal qualities to make a real impact.

• A good understanding of construction sequencing and site logistics.
• Excellent organisational and scheduling skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and competing deadlines.
• Exceptional attention to detail and the ability to identify potential issues before they arise.
• Confident communication skills, with the ability to liaise effectively with clients, contractors, designers and site teams.
