Confirm that all planned infrastructure has the appropriate permissions and consents in place, including wayleave and permit-to-work (PTW) requirements, and progress relevant documentation to the appropriate department for resolution or approval. Collaborate with contractors, planners, and internal teams to ensure infrastructure proposals are deliverable, scalable, and meet field-readiness standards. Lead the execution of pre-connection activities including pole hangs, final route validation, and pre-build quality assurance to support Right First Time outcomes. Act as a senior interface between engineering, service desk, and operations teams, facilitating the timely resolution of complex or high-profile cases. Maintain high standards of documentation and reporting across site visits, risks, and issue resolution activities.
