Offer description

Permit to Work (PWT) Engineer 1234GRE Hinkley Point C £375 PAYE or £550 Umbrella Tasks & Responsibilities The PTW Engineer is responsible for the end-to-end coordination of the Permit to Work system, ensuring all permit-controlled activities-particularly hot work, confined space entry, and electrical isolations-are executed safely and in compliance with both internal procedures and the Principal Contractor's requirements. Key Responsibilities: - Administer and maintain the PTW system, ensuring clarity, completeness, and traceability of all permits. - Review and validate permit requests, ensuring alignment with approved RAMS and procedures. - Coordinate with Permit Acceptors, Holders, and Supervisors to ensure understanding and compliance with permit conditions. - Oversee the hot work permit process, including pre-task checks, fire watch arrangements, and inspections. - Support the implementation of fire safety controls in accordance with internal Hot Works Procedures and the HPC Construction Fire Safety Standard. - Participate in PTW audits and ensure timely closure of findings and corrective actions. - Act as a liaison between internal teams and the Principal Contractor's Permit Team & EHS Team. - Monitor cross-boundary interfaces and ensure permit coordination across contractors and work zones. - Support training and competency assurance for Permit Acceptors, Holders, and Fire Watchers. - Support Incident Investigations where PTW noncompliance is a factor. Specific Functional / Technical Authority The PTW Engineer holds the authority to immediately stop any work or operation where there is a risk to personnel, equipment, or the environment due to non-compliance with the Permit to Work system or associated safety procedures. This includes situations where: - A valid permit is not in place or has not been properly applied. - Hot work or other high-risk activities are being conducted without appropriate controls. - Fire safety measures, including fire watch or gas testing, are inadequate or absent. - Cross-boundary work interfaces are not properly coordinated or risk-assessed. - The PTW Engineer is empowered to escalate non-conformances, enforce corrective actions, and withhold permit approvals until all safety and procedural requirements are met. Job Specifics - The PTW Engineer must be technically proficient and experienced in managing Permit to Work systems within complex construction and commissioning environments, particularly in power generation or large infrastructure projects. A strong understanding of electromechanical systems, fire safety, and high-risk work controls-such as hot work, confined space entry, and electrical isolations-is essential. - The role requires hands-on experience with digital PTW platforms, coordination across multiple contractors, and the ability to interpret and apply site-specific procedures, risk assessments, and regulatory standards. Familiarity with local legislation frameworks is expected.
