Formed part of the project management team to drive a national initiative designed to investigate and potentially extract potash from sea brine, a project defined by the Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration of Iran. Sourced, procured and put in place all the necessary raw materials and equipment for project governance and delivery. Coordinated data capture by designing and implementing sampling processes with associated testing to ensure fit-for-purpose and visualisation reports.… Show more Formed part of the project management team to drive a national initiative designed to investigate and potentially extract potash from sea brine, a project defined by the Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration of Iran. Sourced, procured and put in place all the necessary raw materials and equipment for project governance and delivery. Coordinated data capture by designing and implementing sampling processes with associated testing to ensure fit-for-purpose and visualisation reports. Planned and executed test scenarios to determine the physical and chemical properties of sea brine samples collected.• Eliminated commuting and adjusted operating hours, resulting in two months saved against project completion deadline date and owner satisfaction.
