• Develop recovery programmes and what-if scenarios, evaluating resequencing and resource options with the technical team.
• Maintain delay logs and planning narratives and assess the schedule impact of design changes and risk events.
• Provide programme evidence and analysis to support change and claims assessments in collaboration with commercial teams.
