• Advise and report to the Project Manager and National Environment Manager on environmental performance and assist with maintaining external certifications and tender inputs.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with internal teams, subcontractors, and external stakeholders, managing environmental training, inductions, and community engagement initiatives.
