Job description

Purpose of the role

Play an integral role in managing field-initiated changes so our projects stay safe, efficient and aligned with customer expectations. You’ll act as the connection point between the field, engineering, project controls and construction leadership—making sure changes are identified, documented and assessed with accuracy and speed. Your work helps us maintain the viability of our customers’ assets while supporting their ambitions for lower‑carbon, more resilient operations.

Core Responsibilities

• Coordinating the end-to-end field change management process, from initial identification to closeout.
• Reviewing field change requests for clarity, completeness and feasibility before routing them for technical evaluation.
• Facilitating timely engagement between field teams, engineering, procurement and project controls to assess impacts on scope, cost, schedule, materials and constructability.
• Tracking and maintaining field change logs and ensuring all information is accurate, current and aligned across project systems.
• Supporting constructability reviews by helping teams understand the implications of proposed changes.
• Ensuring changes comply with project procedures, safety standards and contractual requirements.
• Preparing documentation and supporting records for customer approval processes.
• Highlighting potential risks early and collaborating with stakeholders to propose practical solutions.
• Communicating the status of field changes with clarity so leadership can make informed decisions quickly.
• Helping drive a culture of continuous improvement by sharing lessons learned and supporting updates to field processes where needed.

What you’ll bring to the role

• Experience supporting construction, field engineering or project delivery activities in complex industrial environments—energy, chemicals, resources or similar.
• A solid understanding of how scope changes affect cost, schedule, materials and risk, and the ability to communicate those impacts clearly.
• Strong collaboration skills—you listen, you ask good questions, and you work well with diverse teams who may have competing priorities.
• The ability to translate field realities into clear, structured documentation.
• Confidence using project systems (such as change management tools, document control platforms and project controls systems).
• A practical, solutions-oriented mindset and comfort operating in dynamic field conditions.
• Attention to detail, especially when reviewing technical information or coordinating multiple approvals.
• A commitment to safety in every decision.
• Curiosity and willingness to learn—whether it’s new digital tools, new construction methods or new sustainability-related considerations.
