PKAS Intervention
Project Manager in everything but title.
As Planning Manager / Project Coordinator at Sobha Engineering & Contracting, Arunachalam led the programme from mid-project and effectively assumed Project Manager responsibilities for the final 18 months of the completion stage in the absence of a dedicated Project Director — closing out and handing the project over successfully.
