I have strong communicative and organisational skills, which allow me to consult effectively with subcontractors and request quotes. Additionally, I ensure that all necessary materials, tools, and documentation are available on time. During execution, I am the point of contact for subcontractors and freelancers, and I supervise progress, safety, and quality.
