The Architectural Inspector is responsible for conducting day-to-day site inspections and quality control for all architectural, finishing, and building envelope works across the project facilities. This role ensures that interior/exterior architectural executions, finishing materials, fixtures, and spatial layouts strictly comply with approved design drawings, mock-ups, project specifications, and quality standards.
