The manager leads the PMC team—including planners, project engineers, MEP, safety and QS specialists—facilitates daily and weekly coordination meetings with clients and stakeholders, ensures timely release of design deliverables to avoid work stoppages, and communicates issues and escalations with a solution‑oriented approach. They also maintain audit‑ready records for legal, HR, finance and statutory inspections, implement QA/QC plans, and support ISO 9001, 14001 and OHSAS audits while working closely with the Safety Engineer on daily safety rounds and high‑risk activity control.
Financial responsibilities include managing the project budget, validating contractor bills, tracking cash‑flow, change orders and cost deviations, and driving value‑engineering initiatives for cost and time optimisation. The manager oversees testing and commissioning, ensures submission of as‑built drawings, O&M manuals and certificates, and prepares the final project closure report and lessons‑learned document.
