  • Work closely with client representatives, HSE teams, engineers, and commissioning personnel on site
  • Track and report on site progress, productivity, and quality outputs to senior management
  • Maintain accurate site records, including SF6 handling data and inspection results
  • Assist in outage coordination, planning activities, and multi-discipline site delivery
  • Promote and enforce high standards of safety, quality, and environmental performance across all site operations

Requirements

  • Demonstrable experience supervising UK high-voltage substation projects
  • Strong capability across both electrical and mechanical site supervision
  • Practical experience working with GIS systems and SF6 gas handling
  • Sound understanding of F-Gas legislation and environmental xwwtmva compliance obligations
