Contracting & Negotiation
- Structure and negotiate EPC and services contracts (bespoke and standard forms; familiarity with FIDIC or equivalent frameworks).
- Define and secure risk‑balanced terms: performance guarantees, LDs, warranties, schedule obligations, change orders, payment milestones, bond/insurance requirements.
- Collaborate with Legal to ensure contract enforceability and compliance with local regulations.
Execution Support & Supplier Management
- Facilitate kick‑off and contract handover to Project Management and Construction teams.
- Establish supplier performance KPIs (HSE, quality, schedule adherence, cost control, claims).
- Lead issue resolution (variations, claims, delays) and drive continuous improvement with strategic vendors.
- Monitor market changes (materials, equipment, labor) and update cost benchmarks.
