• Led civil engineering oversight for Eskom Distribution projects
across the Northern Cape, covering IPP connections, substations,
and power lines, ensuring full compliance with Eskom standards
and statutory requirements.
• Defined scopes of work and technical requirements for civil and
structural packages, enabling accurate contractor pricing and
controlled execution.
• Conducted technical reviews of drawings, designs, and
documentation across all civil engineering sub-disciplines,
reducing rework and technical risk.
• Monitored site inspections and quality assurance activities,
ensuring installations complied with approved drawings and
specifications.
• Delivered design upgrades and remedial solutions to existing
infrastructure, extending asset life and improving operational
reliability.
• Identified and mitigated technical and constructability risks,
supporting uninterrupted project progression.
• Coordinated closely with electrical engineering teams, managing
interfaces and resolving cross-discipline issues efficiently.
Outcome: Strengthened design assurance, reduced
non-conformances, and ensured consistent delivery across multiple
concurrent distribution projects.

• Delivered execution, monitoring, and control of major
construction packages, including 80+ buildings (Package 16), civil
undergrounds (Package 26), and coal offloading facilities.
• Directly managed contractors on site, overseeing buildings,
drainage, access roads, and underground services.
• Implemented QA/QC processes, issuing and closing NCRs,
reviewing corrective actions, and maintaining construction quality
standards.
• Managed commissioning and handover of building systems
(HVAC, fire, electrical, BMS) to Eskom Generation.
• Appointed Civil Lead Site Engineer (2018), leading the civil team
and taking accountability for technical integrity, design
compliance, and interdisciplinary interfaces.
• Led tender evaluations, technical reports, defect resolution, and
final close-out of civil systems.
• Delivered projects while maintaining safe working conditions,
controlling budgets, and meeting critical milestones.

• Managed design and construction interfaces for large-scale
building and coal offloading projects.
• Conducted design reviews, weekly inspections, and contractor
coordination across multiple disciplines.
• Oversaw consultant performance through structured progress
meetings and site audits.
• Resolved engineering risks and interface challenges to maintain
schedule and technical alignment.

• Designed cable tunnels, trenches, transformer plinths, and
structural components for Medupi Power Station.
• Integrated civil works with drainage, roads, and electrical systems
under tight deadlines.

• Supported soil and concrete laboratory testing before
transitioning to structural design and supervision.
• Managed RFIs and contributed to formal design reviews.
• Investigated drainage and ash dam failures across multiple
power stations, delivering actionable engineering
recommendations.
