It will furthermore be your responsibility to align and sign off the project scope and cost with Sales and ensure that the Wind Turbine Installation projects or EPC projects are planned and executed within the scope of the contract, within budget, on time, and in the right quality. Customer relationship management, quality and cost control, safety, risk/benefit assessment and leadership towards the complete project team are key functions in this role.
