• Troubleshoot operational issues and provide remote solutions to on‑site teams.
• Maintain records of site activities, including safety incidents, progress, and resource allocation, remotely.
• Foster a positive and productive working relationship with all site personnel and stakeholders through effective virtual communication.

• A National Diploma or Degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field.

• Strong understanding of civil engineering principles, construction techniques, and safety regulations.
• Ability to interpret blueprints, technical drawings, and construction specifications.
• High degree of self‑discipline, organization, and proactivity.
