We think you should have:

• A university degree or relevant education with 5 to 10 years of postgraduate experience in front-end, FEED, and EPC projects.
• Experience within the offshore and onshore oil & gas or renewable energy sectors.
• A proven track record in material handling engineering roles during detailed engineering.
• Proficiency in design software such as E3D, Navisworks, and AutoCAD.
• Experience with offshore platforms, especially wind farm HVDC platforms and HVDC equipment handling, is beneficial.
• Experience in modularization for onshore projects is advantageous.
• Experience with multiple office execution or workshare models is beneficial.
