• Review maintenance reports, inspection findings, and technical documentation, implementing corrective actions where required.
• Monitor contractor performance and ensure engineering works are completed safely, efficiently, and to the required quality standards.
• Conduct regular site inspections, audits, and technical assessments to verify compliance with contractual, statutory, and HSE requirements.
• Support asset lifecycle planning, technical risk assessments, and continuous improvement initiatives.
