This role supports both bid-phase development and, progressively, project execution phases, providing high-value insight to Concession Business teams. It requires a data-driven, strategic mindset combined with strong technical expertise in traffic modeling and forecasting as well as communication and management skills, in the interphase between T&R and the rest of the Concessions Business.
