• Identify, assess, and manage project risks
• Contribute to inspection, testing, and commissioning documentation
• Monitor project costs and support budget management
• Ensure all work complies with contractual, safety, environmental, and quality requirements
• Develop and maintain effective relationships with clients and key stakeholders
