We are looking for a highly organised and detail-oriented professional to support the coordination and administration of customer enquiries, tendering activities, and project execution. This role is central to ensuring the smooth and efficient delivery of complex decommissioning operations by managing documentation, scheduling, communication, and compliance processes. Working closely with technical teams, the successful candidate will help facilitate the planning and execution of projects such as well severance, structural and subsea dismantling, and controlled flow excavation. While a general understanding of cold cutting technologies and related tools is beneficial, the emphasis of this role is on administrative support rather than technical leadership. The ideal candidate will be proactive, reliable, and capable of managing multiple priorities to ensure that all aspects of the project lifecycle are delivered in line with the agreed scope of work.
