Ensure strict compliance with environmental regulations, heavy industrial building codes, zoning laws, and permitting processes.
Risk, Quality & Safety Oversight
Develop and implement a program-wide risk mitigation framework to proactively handle supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, and regulatory hurdles.
Enforce zero-harm safety cultures, ensuring all project sites adhere to strict industrial safety standards (e.g., OSHA, local labor safety laws).
Oversee testing, commissioning, and operational handover of complex mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems and industrial processes.
Team Leadership & Mentorship
