- Work closely with QA/QC personnel to ensure welding, fit-up, material traceability and inspection requirements are completed and documented.

- Coordinate with subcontractors, suppliers and other stakeholders to manage materials, equipment and construction interfaces.

- Provide leadership, coaching and direction to the workforce, maintaining high standards of safety, quality and workmanship.

- Maintain accurate daily records, progress updates, timesheets and construction documentation.
