We have extensive experience in offshore and onshore facilities; specialising in asset management services throughout all life cycle phases from consulting, engineering, manufacturing, assembly, operations, maintenance, and decommissioning.

This commitment is delivered by an experienced and highly competent workforce of over 4,500 employees operating from 14 offices in strategic industrial hubs, upholding the highest standards of safety, compliance and quality.

The Bilfinger Engineering Division is growing fast and we need talent like you! These exciting new positions are important to our growth strategy of providing high quality engineering, design and project services to our clients.

As a key member of the Bilfinger UK Engineering Team you will have the opportunity to work on some of the most stimulating and ground breaking design and EPC projects in the UK.

DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES:

• The Engineering Project Manager is required for the duration of the detailed design phase as the first and single responsible Bilfinger person for the delivery of the project and will also be the first focal point for the project team.
• Together with your team of Lead Engineers, Engineers and Designers, you are responsible for the delivery of single and multi-discipline engineering, EPCM or EPC projects
• Project predominantly reside in the UK, but you will be expected to carry out projects for Europe and potentially wider areas of the Bilfinger business areas
• These projects will range across the full lifecycle from concept to commissioning, in both green and brownfield applications
• The projects will vary in complexity and size, delivered for all the major sectors (Oil & Gas, Nuclear, Energy, Utilities, Chemicals, Petrochemicals and Food)
• You are responsible to manage and complete the projects within budget and planning. This includes change control, profit and loss
• You will manage engineering projects, where you will take complete ownership of your projects
• A project is only completed after the last invoice has been paid by the client
• Depending on size and complexity you may manage one project or a portfolio of projects
• Projects can be stand-alone engineering projects, where you will be Bilfinger’s focal point in front of the client, or your project can also be the engineering scope of a Bilfinger EPCM / EPC project.

• You plan and organise your activities before you allow your team to start spending hours. You understand the dependencies of the engineering activities within the project, but also the dependencies between the other disciplines. You have a ‘one time right’ mentality
• You are capable of identifying growth within the company with support to sales, business management, company procedures and strategies
