10. Liaising with internal teams to book in trade attendances (subcontractors and/or specialists)
11. Maintaining an awareness of SLA (service level agreement) and KPIs
12. Conduct risk assessments on the potential high risk and hazardous components of each project

Key Professional Skills:

7. Attention to detail and pride in your work
8. Knowledge of building regulations and Australian codes and standards
9. Construction knowledge including processes and pricing
