- Help support the Project Scheduler and Commercial team with progress measurements and document reviews, interact with stakeholders, effectively communicate company values and objectives on-site, fulfil reporting obligations, and manage interactions with various parties involved in the project. All of this will be reported directly to the Site Construction Manager daily or weekly.
