- Review drawings, specifications, and technical submissions and ensure compliance
- Monitor project costs, assist with variations, and support commercial reporting
- Ensure works are delivered in line with health and safety requirements and company procedures
- Attend and contribute to project and site meetings, providing updates on progress and risks
- Support project close-out, commissioning, and handover processes

Development & Progression
This role is designed for someone already on the project management pathway, offering:
- Increased ownership of project delivery
- Progression to managing larger and more complex projects
- Mentorship from senior project leadership
- Opportunity to develop both technical and commercial responsibility
Career progression is expected towards Electrical Project Manager and beyond.
Summary
This is a step-up opportunity for someone who has already moved beyond a purely technical or trade-based role and is now actively managing elements of projects. It provides the platform to transition into full project ownership, with support while still maintaining real responsibility from day one.
