Contract: Full-time, Permanent (Hybrid - 3-5 days per week in office)
About the role
We are currently partnering with a leading global organisation within the Oil and Gas sector to recruit a Project Engineer to join their Projects & Solutions team based in Malton.
Reporting to the Project Manager, this is a key role responsible for delivering bespoke engineering solutions focused on custody transfer, measurement, and metering systems across oil and gas applications. These solutions play a critical role in ensuring accurate measurement of product quantity and quality - essential for commercial and financial integrity across complex operations such as pipelines, offshore installations, and loading facilities.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Project Engineer - or a motivated junior engineer with relevant systems experience - to work on technically challenging, high-value projects within a specialist engineering environment.
What you'll be doing:
As a Project Engineer, you will support the design, configuration, and delivery of metering and control systems, including:
* Planning, coordinating, and executing engineering activities across assigned projects or project phases.
* Interpreting customer specifications and translating these into compliant technical designs and solutions.
* Designing and configuring flow computers, metering supervisory systems (MSC), PLCs, and associated software.
* Producing and managing project documentation (e.g., FDS, SBD, ATM, SAT, O&M manuals, loop diagrams, GA drawings).
* Supporting testing activities, including Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and system validation. xsngvjr
* Liaising with internal stakeholders, customers, and vendors to ensure successful project delivery
* Supporting the sales team with technical input for proposals and tenders
What we're looking for:
We're interested in speaking to engineers with a background in oil & gas measurement, control, or instrumentation systems who are comfortable working in a project-driven, technical environment.
Essential:
* Degree, HNC, or HND in Engineering (Electrical, Instrumentation, Automation, or similar)
* Experience in oil and gas, ideally within custody transfer, measurement, or metering systems
* Knowledge of flow computers and supervisory/control systems such as Emerson, Omni, FlowX, EXI, Honeywell (DCS/Metersuite), PLCs, CiTECT, or similar
* Experience in control systems, instrumentation, or automation engineering
* Ability to interpret technical specifications and deliver engineering solutions accordingly
Desirable:
* Experience working on multi-discipline engineering projects
* Familiarity with HMI/SCADA systems such as Wonderware or similar
What you'll gain:
* A permanent, full-time opportunity within a highly specialised engineering environment
* The chance to work on technically complex and commercially critical oil and gas projects
* Exposure to global projects and industry-leading measurement and control technologies
* A hybrid working model with a strong team presence in the Malton office
If you're a driven Project Engineer with a passion for delivering accurate, high-quality engineering solutions in the oil and gas industry, we'd love to hear from you.
