@kaibravin
I deliver commercial control and coordinated project outcomes across complex residential construction developments.
What I'm looking for
I've managed commercial delivery for multiple concurrent residential developments at David Wilson Homes, overseeing budgets, forecasting, reporting, payments and delivery priorities. I supported the delivery of approximately 100–120 homes per year and led commercial coordination for around £20m of roads, sewers and off-site highway works.
I'm now looking to bring my stakeholder coordination, procurement, negotiation and risk-management experience into a dedicated project management role within an international organisation. My work and volunteering in Türkiye and Colombia have strengthened my cross-cultural communication, Spanish and adaptability.
