* Ensure project surveys are accurate and aligned with operational targets to support first-time-right installations.
* Resolve scheduling or resource conflicts with agility and efficiency.
* Conduct regular 1:1s, performance reviews, and team development activities.
The full role scope will be available on the job description.
