• Meetings with stakeholders: Coordinate with facility managers, engineers, and occupants to discuss performance, complaints, or improvements needed.

• Problem-solving: Investigate any reported issues, diagnose root causes, and coordinate with technical teams or contractors to plan fixes.

• Documentation: Update post-occupancy evaluation reports with findings, recommendations, and progress on ongoing actions.

• Project coordination: Track budgets and timelines for any corrective or improvement works, ensuring milestones are met.

• Continuous improvement: Collaborate with design and engineering teams to integrate lessons learned into current or future projects.

• Compliance check: Verify that all operations and modifications comply with building codes, safety standards, and environmental regulations.

• Proficiency in data analysis tools and software used for monitoring building performance (e.g., Energy Plus, AutoCAD, Revit, BIM tools, or other building management systems).

• Familiarity with industry standards and codes, including ASHRAE, ISO 50001, building codes, and health and safety regulations.

• Excellent project management skills, including budget and schedule management.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate effectively with engineers, architects, contractors, and building occupants.
