Explanation:
The roles seems equivalent to that of a Project Manager in the UK - can't think of a better way of putting it!

There are certainly a few Italian sites that translate it this way:

Technical Director


Explanation:
Just a quick thought. Italian (and German and perhaps French as well maybe) companies must have a director who takes full responsibility for all civil works, consigliere d'amministrazione tecnico. Maybe this is the figure they are referring, but I've never seen this term before. Might be best to translate it literally if you don't know a British or American equivalent.
