Project Execution Responsibilities

The Senior Project Engineer will play a key role in project execution, contributing to the development of the Project Execution Plan, Discipline Design Instruction, and Contract requisitions. This includes preparing project plans and multi-discipline documents such as the basis of design and subcontract scopes of work. The role requires managing and coordinating multidiscipline engineering inputs and deliverables across multiple execution centers, including workshare arrangements.

Quality and Compliance Assurance

Adherence to the quality system is essential, with a focus on monitoring and addressing any deficiencies. The engineer will ensure that Health, Safety, Environment, and Security (HSES) issues are identified and addressed throughout all project phases, from design to operations.

The engineer will plan individual work activities, manage time effectively, and liaise with disciplines to ensure timely receipt of comments. Inputting to work plans, setting targets, and conducting regular reviews are expected. The role requires expediting engineers to meet schedules, understanding reasons for delays, and driving the development of recovery plans. Most delays or changes will be resolved by the engineer, with only the most serious issues escalated. Highlighting and quantifying changes that impact work is also a critical function.

Team Leadership and Communication

The Senior Project Engineer will supervise the work of technical professionals in delivering engineering outputs, including checking their work. This role involves coordinating medium-sized interdisciplinary teams, typically ranging from 10 to 50 individuals. Effective communication is vital to facilitate work efforts, motivate the team, and foster a proactive, solutions-oriented attitude.

Experience and Requirements

Candidates are expected to have 5-10 years of relevant experience. The ability to effect change when approved is also a requirement for this role.
