Support with quoting, planning, and overseeing additional works and minor projects.
Use tools as needed for urgent or emergency works to avoid service delays.
Provide technical guidance, supervision, and mentorship to the on-site team.

Requirements:
Strong working knowledge of M&E building services.
Experience managing or supervising engineering teams in a commercial or residential setting.
