- Monitor progress against programme, identify potential delays and constraints, and put recovery measures in place where required
- Coordinate interfaces between the structures package and wider highways, earthworks and infrastructure works
- Oversee quality, RAMS, ITPs, inspections and construction records throughout the delivery of the works
- Lead and manage the site team, ensuring clear direction, communication and accountability across the package
