• Able to turn discussions into clear actions and follow issues through to resolution

Role & Responsibilities

• Support continuous improvement in how projects are delivered as the business grows
Why Join?
A superb opportunity to work on real-world clean technology with genuine ownership, broad exposure across engineering, manufacturing, procurement, and deployment, and the chance to grow into senior project delivery or programme leadership as the company scales.
