  • Understanding of airfield operational requirements and the ability to integrate them into design and construction plans.
  • Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills to manage relationships with airport authorities, contractors, and stakeholders.
  • Ability to convey complex mechanical and plumbing concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Proven experience in conducting stakeholder meetings, progress briefings, and workshops.
  • Regulatory and Industry Standards
