Monitor and report on contract performance, using IT systems to track progress against Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
Manage aftercare and defect resolution, ensuring contractors address issues and complete end-of-defects inspections.
Coordinate site inspections and assist with snagging and handover processes to ensure quality and compliance.
