The Quality Manager will lead the implementation and oversight of the Project Quality Management System and be responsible for all Quality Assurance and Quality Control activities during construction. The role requires extensive experience on large, complex infrastructure projects involving marine works, tunnelling, deep excavations, foundations, structural concrete, and heavy civil construction.

Working within a Progressive Design-Build environment, the Quality Manager will work closely with the Owner, Design-Builder, contractors, suppliers, and regulatory agencies to ensure that construction activities comply with contract requirements, approved designs, applicable codes and standards, and project quality objectives.

The successful candidate will bring a practical understanding of quality management on major construction projects and have experience managing quality risks associated with marine construction, immersed structures, deep excavations, piling, post-tensioned concrete systems, underground works, and large-scale structural concrete construction.

In this role, you will lead the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of the project Quality Management System, including the Arcadis Construction Quality Management Plan (CQMP), quality procedures, inspection processes, audit programs, and reporting systems.

You will oversee all Quality Control activities, including inspection and testing programs, hold points, witness points, material approvals, non-conformance management, corrective actions, and quality surveillance activities.

You will review and verify construction records, test results, inspection reports, submittals, shop drawings, material approvals and certifications, and as-built documentation to ensure compliance with project requirements.

You will provide quality oversight for construction activities including:

• Marine works, dredging, reclamation, shoreline protection, and marine structures.
• Deep excavations, excavation support systems, shoring, dewatering, and ground improvement works.
• Piling and foundation construction, including driven piles, drilled shafts, and specialty foundation systems.
• Structural concrete works, mass concrete placements, precast concrete elements, and post-tensioned structures.
