Your main responsibilities will be:

• Assess and analyse change requests from site to identify impacts on the overall layout and design configuration.
• Coordinate and manage inputs from multiple teams (HVAC, Piping, Electrical, Civil) to support a consistent and integrated technical response.
• Produce clear technical justifications and impact assessments backed by 3D modelling data, tolerances, and design documentation.
• Liaise with the design back-office, installation contractors, and site teams to ensure timely implementation of approved changes.
• Track and support modification requests, open point closures, and lessons learned through structured team communication.
• Use change control processes to manage risk and ensure alignment with layout design intent and engineering standards.
