About The Role

Indicatura® is a vibrant and growing consultancy that delivers improved value to clients from planned investments in new and existing physical assets. We play a key role in the shaping and delivery of some of the UK’s most critical and exciting projects. Our clients are top‑tier companies or national government and public sector organisations and we help those clients make the best CapEx decisions.

Why? Because our vision is to make a difference to our world by reducing waste and inefficiency in the creation and use of physical asset portfolios… enabling the world to make better use of our planet’s precious resources.

Key Responsibilities

• Development and implementation of Asset Management Framework and associated systems
• Leading projects capturing and analysing engineering and asset‑based information, developing asset management plans and investigating the root causes of inefficiencies and problems, modelling the whole‑life performance of major assets
• Developing suitable, feasible and acceptable information base, analysis, recommendations and solutions
• Leading the production of presentable client outputs (graphs, tables, slides, written reports) that underpin our advice and benefit client outcomes
• Running and facilitating workshops and meetings with a range of audience engagement
• Assistance in development of client’s target operating models
• Forming relationships with clients to assist in moving work and business development forward

What are we looking for in a candidate?

The ideal candidate will have a good working knowledge of Asset Management and engineering analyses and the personal drive and motivation to support the delivery of our Asset Management services. Many of our clients won’t make strategic decisions on capital projects or operations without our advice; therefore they need the experience, skills and gravitas to communicate effectively to a range of stakeholders.

Key Skills & Interests

• Understanding how physical assets are maintained and used
• How data can be exploited to optimise asset value
• A strong interest or experience (education or work) in data analysis and problem solving
• A wealth of experience heading up engineering projects
• Experience of writing proposals, bids, project control artefacts
• Reliability and maintainability of equipment – Reliability theory
• Excellent client‑facing skills and commerciality – personal qualities to make clients comfortable with you as their principal point of contact and to build strong relationships and business with both existing and new clients
• Familiar with PAS55 / ISO 55000 and experience leading projects to optimise maintenance and performance using RCM, RCA, FMEA, etc.
• Project‑management skills

Qualifications

• Degree, Master’s, or PhD in engineering (mechanical, materials, aerospace, physics, mathematics (applied), computer science, civil, electrical, chemical or other relevant STEM degree)

Our biggest asset is our team, which is made up of talented individuals who enjoy delivering amazing outcomes for our clients.

Ready to Apply?
