Other duties include, in collaboration with others, managing the process of ensuring that the main mechanical components are defined in further detail.

You are capable of operating across our organisation and acting as a leader within the mechanical discipline on a specific development project. You have previous experience with project development work, collecting and combining information from different sources into functional specifications and dealing with different stakeholders.



You have previously worked in greenfield or major brownfield environments, and with identifying and managing related project dependencies and critical path activities. Furthermore, you have experience with standard rotating and pressure-containing static mechanical equipment on unmanned wellhead platforms and integrated production platforms, as well as working with and managing major engineering/contracting companies, manufacturers and equipment suppliers.



Finally, you are highly committed to health, safety and protecting the environment. You have the ability to identify, influence and collaborate with stakeholders at all levels. As we operate in an international environment, it is essential that you speak and write English fluently.
