The role

Are you looking for an environment where your technical expertise makes a difference and where every project is a new professional challenge?
At OCA Global, we want to hire a Building Installations Manager to strengthen our Technical Inspection and Control team in the building area, focusing on the supervision and verification of electrical, thermal, sanitary, and HVAC installations, with a small team under your charge.
