• Managing RFIs, design queries, change control, and technical risk
  
• Ensuring full integration of BMS with M&E systems (HVAC, electrical, life safety, EPMS, etc.)
  
• Overseeing QA/QC, inspections, snagging, and documentation

• Strong BMS / Controls background with proven site delivery experience
  
• Experience working on data centres, pharma, industrial, or other mission-critical projects
