Coordinating subcontractors and resolving technical issues on the ground
Raising and managing RFIs, technical queries, and design clarifications
Reviewing drawings and specifications, identifying and flagging buildability issues early
Supporting the site management team with programme monitoring and reporting
Maintaining site documentation, daily diaries, and photographic records to a high standard
What You Will Need

Proven experience as a Senior or Lead Site Engineer on civil engineering or water infrastructure projects
Strong setting out capability using total station and GPS equipment
Solid QA and documentation management skills
