- Identify project bottlenecks and take quick, effective decisions to resolve critical issues.




- Maintain high standards of workmanship, detailing and finishing quality.
- Understand and monitor budgets, BOQs, quotations, negotiations, variations and project margins.
- Build accountability across design, procurement, vendor and site teams.
- Take complete ownership of client satisfaction, design quality, project timelines and final delivery.

- Commercial understanding of project budgets, BOQs and vendor negotiations.
- High attention to detail and uncompromising quality standards.
- Robust ownership mindset with the ability to take responsibility from brief to final handover.
