  3. A proven record in delivering client outcomes; experience in the extractives and construction materials sector will also be highly regarded.
  4. Demonstrated experience directing and managing multidisciplinary projects.
  5. Experience managing projects on your own with good delegation skills.
  6. A thorough understanding of project budgets and deliverables while maintaining excellent client service.
  7. Strong attention to detail.
  8. Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  9. Ability to work unsupervised as well as part of a team.
  10. Ability to take the initiative and be proactive in your workplace and implement new ideas.

Benefits
We are most proud of our diverse, friendly, and expert team, who work together to collaborate on projects to get the best possible outcome for our clients.
