* Leading multi-disciplinary teams in the installation, commissioning, and testing of systems
* Reviewing and ensuring compliance with construction drawings, specifications, and QA requirements
* Participating in constructability reviews and construction planning
* Identifying and mitigating site-based risks, maintaining a strong safety-first culture
What We’re Looking For

* A strong understanding of site safety, quality control, and compliance processes
* Experience delivering against detailed RAMS, project drawings, and QA documentation
* Confident communicator with the ability to lead teams and engage effectively with clients and stakeholders
* Proven ability to work under pressure while maintaining attention to detail and safety standards
* Eligibility for UK security clearance is essential (including residency and background criteria)

You’ll gain exposure to complex engineering challenges, operate within a supportive and safety-conscious environment, and be part of a company that values innovation, integrity, and excellence.
