Evaluate risks and opportunities, supporting the development of cost contingency plans and trend management strategies.
Lead progress acceptance checks, review contractor payment claims, and manage final contract settlements and documentation.
Oversee downstream payment assessments and assist in the compilation and submission of upstream payment requests.
Ensure all construction cost activities comply with corporate Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) guidelines and local regulatory requirements.

The ideal candidate will have:

Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent tertiary qualification in Cost Engineering, Quantity Surveying, Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field.
Minimum 3 to 5 years of progressive experience in cost engineering, budgeting, and project controls within heavy industrial, engineering, or large-scale construction environments.
Strong technical expertise in engineering, procurement, contracts, construction processes, and financial reporting/controls.
Hands-on experience with digital budgeting and project control software, alongside advanced proficiency in financial analysis and numeracy tools.
Practical understanding of international and regional construction standards, contract drafting, and estimation methodologies.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a proven track record of identifying cost drivers and trend analysis.
