Candidates must have extensive experience working in the concept, design and procurement phases of the project lifecycle along with previous experience of working in a Project Management or Engineering Consultancy.

This role requires expertise in logistics planning, stakeholder engagement, and managing complex scopes of work. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in developing site logistics strategies, coordinating with multidisciplinary teams, and ensuring compliance with health, safety, and environmental (HSE) standards, quality assurance, and performance objectives.

What You'll Be Doing :

  • Conduct safety investigations, inspections, and audits as required to maintain a safe working environment.

Logistics Planning and Coordination :

  • Manage access, haulage routes, and material delivery schedules to minimize disruption to surrounding works, districts, and stakeholders.
  • Oversee temporary works and site setup requirements, including laydown areas, crane platforms, plant movements, and construction traffic management.
  • Stakeholder Engagement :

  • Act as the key point of contact between the project delivery team, district logistics team, and TBU logistics resources, ensuring alignment of project-specific needs with wider logistics frameworks.
  • Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders, including contractors, consultants, and local authorities, to ensure alignment with project objectives.
  • Performance Monitoring and Reporting :

  • Track and report on logistics KPIs (e.g., material delivery efficiency, site access utilization, congestion impacts) and escalate risks or bottlenecks as needed.
  • Prepare and present strategies (e.g., procurement, constructability, logistics, interface) to governance and control committees as required.
  • Scope and Change Management :

  • Oversee scope management, constructability reviews, and contract alignment to ensure project objectives are met.
  • Manage all changes related to the delivery of the scope through the defined TBU change management process, ensuring early identification and communication of potential impacts.
  • Design and Procurement Coordination :

  • Collaborate with design and engineering teams to ensure the successful delivery of concept and detailed designs.
  • Support procurement processes by developing detailed scopes of work, facilitating market engagement, and evaluating contractor and supplier proposals.
  • Procurement and Commercial Support :

  • Support the procurement process by selecting appropriate contract models, developing comprehensive scopes of work, facilitating market engagement, and conducting rigorous reviews to ensure the engagement of suitable contractors and consultants.
  • Work effectively with the commercial team to ensure contractual compliance and cost control are maintained to the highest level.
  • Team Leadership and Mentorship :

  • Provide visible and inclusive leadership, ensuring effective succession planning, recruitment, and retention strategies.
  • Mentor and coach team members to support their professional growth and foster a high-performance culture.
  • Risk and Opportunity Management :

  • Identify and assess risks and opportunities, develop and apply appropriate mitigation strategies, and manage them through monthly reviews to confirm their continued validity.
  • Conduct post-project reviews to capture lessons learned and identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Quality Assurance and Compliance :

  • Ensure all project deliverables meet quality standards, technical specifications, and regulatory requirements.
  • Implement and maintain project management processes, tools, and best practices to ensure transparency, information accuracy, standardization, and continuous improvement.
  • General Project Support :

  • Support a broad range of project activities, including risk and opportunity sessions, value engineering, design reviews, site inspections, consultant and contractor evaluations, and executive reporting.
  • Maintain awareness of industry trends, regulations, and best practices to continuously enhance project delivery.
