- Tertiary qualification in engineering (preferred).
- Deep experience leading large scale infrastructure programmes
- Ability to accelerate project execution, ensuring investment is swiftly translated into on-the-ground results.
- Commercial acumen with critical thinking, enabling effective decision-making in complex, high-stakes environments.
- Demonstrated ability to drive urgency, maintain momentum, and ensure the continuity of spend and timely delivery of results.
- Confident, proven executive leadership experience
- Excellent communicator with years of effective stakeholder management experience across the various stakeholder groups relevant to these funds.
