  • Proven ability to lead technical discussions with internal and external stakeholders, resolve complex engineering problems using systematic approaches, and collaborate effectively across interdisciplinary and multicultural project teams.
  • Proficiency in engineering tools (e.g. Aspen, COMOS, document management systems) and good MS Office skills; strong project management capabilities with the ability to prioritise and manage time effectively across concurrent workstreams.
  • Fluent in English (spoken and written); willingness to travel to site or suppliers up to 10% of the time; installation and commissioning experience is a distinct advantage.
