• Ensure all works comply with contractual, legislative, quality, safety, and environmental requirements
• Lead and support project teams, providing clear direction, motivation, and performance oversight
• Maintain accurate project documentation, reporting, dashboards, and completion records
• Actively promote a Zero Harm culture and ensure WHS compliance across all project activities
• Provide high-quality advice and reporting to leadership as required
