- 40‑50% travel across EMEA.
- Collaboration across general time zones.
- Active construction environments requiring PPE.
Key Job Responsibilities
1. Strategy & Mechanism Ownership
- Own EMEA contribution to the global off‑site assembly portfolio, including tracking labour hours shifted off‑site across CSAS, Mechanical, and Electrical systems.
- Develop repeatable frameworks for evaluating and implementing modular solutions.
- Establish governance, reporting, and metrics to measure adoption, cost impact, schedule compression, safety improvements, and quality outcomes.
- Build scalable mechanisms to embed constructability and prefabrication into project lifecycle decisions.
- Cross‑Functional Leadership
- Partner with Preconstruction, Procurement, Design, and Operations to embed constructability and modular thinking early in project development.
- Represent EMEA within the global Off‑Site Assembly team and adapt general innovations to regional market conditions.
