This role sits at the intersection of engineering design, supplier management, and cross-functional coordination ensuring critical equipment packages are delivered on time, on budget, and fully aligned with the overall plant design.

Your main responsibilities will be:

* Specialist Equipment Oversight: Manage detailed technical requirements for key process equipment such as fluidised beds, dryers, calciners, and granulators.
* Integrated Design: Ensure packages are designed for full compatibility with the wider facility — covering structural, electrical, control, and containment systems.
* Vendor & Risk Management: Work closely with suppliers to flag technical risks early, ensuring smooth handovers and preventing delivery delays.
* Standards & Compliance: Ensure all packages meet internal engineering standards, safety regulations, and environmental requirements.
* Quality Assurance: Support factory testing (FATs), lead inspections, and drive quality compliance across package procurement and delivery.
* Procurement Support: Assist with technical bid reviews and supplier negotiations to ensure best-value, technically viable solutions.
* Documentation & Collaboration: Maintain clear records, coordinate across engineering, procurement and construction teams, and ensure accurate as-built documentation.
* Sustainability Focus: Help identify and implement low-energy, low-emission solutions that align with long-term environmental goals.
* Lifecycle Thinking: Factor in maintainability and operational reliability during design and procurement phases.

Who are we looking for?

* Proven experience delivering complex equipment packages on large-scale process or manufacturing projects.
* A solid engineering background — mechanical, process, or systems engineering preferred.
* A strong grasp of multi-disciplinary integration, particularly electrical and automation interfaces.

You are...
