  • Authority & Compliance (Qatar)

  • Ensure compliance with Qatar Construction Specifications (QCS), fire & life safety requirements, and applicable international codes / standards.
  • Prepare / coordinate statutory packages, pre-approvals, NOCs, and close-out documentation.
  • Project & Stakeholder Management

  • Lead multidisciplinary meetings (IDCs, designer-of-record workshops, VE sessions).

  • Provide clear reporting (dashboards, progress, risks, decisions) to senior leadership.
  • Quality, HSE & Handover

  • Enforce QA / QC processes (technical reviews, NCR prevention, mock-up sign-offs, factory visits).
  • Coordinate site inspections for architectural / ID finishes and sustainability credits during construction.
