Construction Execution • Manage end-to-end project delivery from readiness and handoff through commissioning and turnover to operations. • Confirm field readiness in collaboration with the Planning Manager, ensuring permits, disconnects, and site access are secured before mobilization. • Oversee daily contractor and subcontractor activities on-site, ensuring adherence to safety, scope, and quality standards. • Direct civil and electrical installation, utility interconnection, inspections, and punch list activities according to project plans and safety protocols.
