Lead or support commissioning, start-up, testing and handover of new or modified plant and equipment.
Develop and maintain project schedules, budgets, risk registers and progress reports.
Ensure all projects comply with Management of Change (MoC), process safety requirements and regulatory obligations.
Participate in HAZID, HAZOP, design reviews and risk assessments to ensure safe plant design and operation.
Monitor contractor performance to ensure compliance with health, safety, environmental and quality standards.
Identify opportunities to improve reliability, efficiency, sustainability and lifecycle performance through project delivery.
Maintain accurate project documentation and engineering records to support ongoing operation and maintenance.

The Candidate:

Personally committed to maintaining the highest Health, Safety, Quality and Environmental standards.
Proactive, organised and able to anticipate issues before they arise.
Strong problem-solving skills with a continuous improvement mindset.
Excellent relationship-building and stakeholder management skills.
Strong communication, IT, presentation and time management skills.
Able to manage multiple priorities and work effectively across multidisciplinary teams.
Knowledgeable in company policies and engineering procedures to ensure site compliance.

Qualifications / Experience:

Degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent demonstrable experience.
Working towards Chartered Engineer (CEng) status.
Experience delivering mechanical engineering projects.
Experience specifying and procuring mechanical process or manufacturing equipment and associated services.
Strong knowledge of mechanical engineering design codes and standards.
Experience managing contractors and suppliers.
Proven experience across all lifecycle phases of mechanical or multi-discipline engineering projects.
Experience working within manufacturing, process or high-hazard industries.
NEBOSH qualification and defence industry experience are desirable.

In return, we offer a competitive salary and excellent benefits, including pension, healthcare, employee assistance programme, and access to flexible benefits such as Cycle2Work and discounted services.
