Sustainability Manager

Your role

Design Leadership

• Lead and coordinate architectural and interior design across all stages (Concept, Schematic, Detailed Design, IFC, Shop Drawings, As-Built).
• Own the design brief, project design standards, and the management of design changes (change control).
• Review and approve drawings, specifications, mock-ups, and material submittals—including joinery, finishes, fixtures, lighting, signage/wayfinding, and bespoke elements.
• Ensure human-centric design: functionality, accessibility, acoustics, lighting, ergonomics, and universal design principles.
• Drive value engineering while protecting design intent and operational performance.
• Manage design interfaces with MEP, structural, façade, landscape, security/ICT, and specialty consultants (kitchen/laundry, AV, medical planning, etc.).
• Oversee BIM execution (BEP, LOD, coordination/clash detection) and digital design reviews.

Sustainability Management

• Define the project sustainability vision, targets, and roadmap; lead delivery of GSAS/LEED and client sustainability goals.
• Coordinate energy, water, and carbon strategies; oversee modeling (EUI, WUI, daylighting, thermal comfort, embodied carbon).
• Integrate circularity and healthy materials principles (low-VOC, EPDs, recycled content) into ID/architectural specifications.
• Manage sustainability submittals, evidence collection, and audits through design and construction.
• Champion commissioning for performance (Cx/RCx), post-occupancy evaluation, and performance verification.

Authority & Compliance

• Plan and secure approvals from relevant authorities (e.g., MME/UPDA, QCDD, Ashghal, municipalities, utility providers, and project-specific master developers).
• Ensure compliance with Qatar Construction Specifications (QCS), fire & life safety requirements, and applicable international codes/standards.
• Prepare/coordinate statutory packages, pre-approvals, NOCs, and close-out documentation.

Project & Stakeholder Management

• Establish design schedules, deliverables matrices, and dependencies; manage risks, issues, and assumptions.
• Lead multidisciplinary meetings (IDCs, designer-of-record workshops, VE sessions).
• Interface with client reps, cost consultants, PMC, main contractors, and specialist suppliers to ensure quality, cost, and schedule adherence.
• Provide clear reporting (dashboards, progress, risks, decisions) to senior leadership.

Quality, HSE & Handover

• Enforce QA/QC processes (technical reviews, NCR prevention, mock-up sign-offs, factory visits).
• Coordinate site inspections for architectural/ID finishes and sustainability credits during construction.
• Manage snagging/De-snagging, O&M manuals, training, and as-built verification to achieve timely completion and smooth handover.
