Your role and responsibilities:

• Responsible for the successful delivery of projects from contract award to close-out, including initial scope identification and confirmation.

• Contribute to tenders with scopes of work reviews, concept designs, and CTR estimates.
• Liaise with workshop, procurement, operational teams, and clients to provide technical support.
• Ensure all activities prioritize health and safety, environmental protection, and pollution prevention.
• Own and adhere to engineering processes for assigned projects.

We seek a highly experienced Senior Project Engineer with the following qualifications and experience:

• BEng / BSc or Meng / MSc in Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.
• Membership of an Engineering Institution or working towards Incorporated Engineer or Chartered Engineer status.

• Thorough knowledge of working methods, planning, and risk assessment.
• Knowledge of standards, rules, and regulations for offshore projects (e.g., Subsea, ROV, marine operations).
• Experience with ROVs & ROV tooling.
• Experience in developing and testing new engineering designs and equipment.
• Resourcefulness and problem-solving skills.
• Practical approach and strong communication skills.
