Construction Management skills
Apply Building Safety Act, CDM 2015, and Approved Documents to live site decisions.
Make 48-hour-window calls on RIDDOR incidents, near-miss escalation, and stop-work.
Use NEC4 / JCT compensation events, EOTs, LADs, and PC handover correctly.
Balance embodied carbon, BREEAM, and net-zero against cost and programme.
Novation, performance bond, re-tender — make the right call when a subcontractor fails.
Pick between D&B, Traditional, CM, and GMP for a given project profile.
Plus universal Boardroom skills
Spot flawed reasoning even when it comes from a confident expert.
Verify AI output rather than trust it by default — the wrong advisor mechanic IS AI-verification training.
Articulate why you made the call under time pressure, not just what you decided.
Judge decisions across cost, quality, schedule, safety, brand — not just one KPI.
Tell hard news to clients, regulators, and teams without losing credibility.
Hold duties to the public, the firm, and the profession when they pull in different directions.

Scenarios
Hand-picked anchor dilemmas. Click to preview or request the full build.
A welder on your crew has skipped the morning toolbox talk three days running. Sign off his start card to keep the schedule, send him to the supervisor, or stop work on his zone?
Your steel bracket order is delayed 5 days. Switch supplier (£8k premium), accept the delay (LADs risk), or rework the programme sequence and pour the slab first?
A scaffold board fails, a worker is injured, HSE is notified. The client wants an update by 17:00. What's the 48-hour response?
A1 fire-rating costs £380k more than A2. Both are legal. The client is privately keen on A2. You're the Accountable Person under the Building Safety Act.
Your steelwork subcontractor goes into administration at 17:00. Their steel is 60% erected. Novate, self-deliver, or trigger the bond?
EPDs show a 14% overshoot on the public 600 kgCO₂e/m² cap. Switch supplier, redesign in CLT, or report transparently?
A junior engineer messages you Friday evening: she believes the cube tests on works you signed off were back-dated. School opens to pupils in September.
Your most experienced Site Manager has been signing off works without proper inspection — because of programme pressure you set. Confront, restructure, or reassign?
