• Support equipment selection, technical bid evaluations, commissioning, start-up and process troubleshooting.
• Collaborate with manufacturing sites, EHS, R&D, Quality, Procurement, engineering contractors and suppliers.
• Promote engineering standards, best practices and knowledge sharing across sites and businesses.
• Provide technical guidance and mentoring to engineers and project teams.

You will bring strong chemical engineering fundamentals, practical manufacturing experience and sound technical judgement. Through collaboration and technical leadership, you will help project teams manage risk, improve manufacturing performance and embed process safety into every stage of engineering design and project delivery.

You will also support the development of standardized, innovative and sustainable solutions while strengthening process engineering capabilities across the regional organization.

Ideal Candidate

• Ability to work effectively across functions, sites and cultures, with regional travel as required.
• Fluent English; additional languages are an advantage.
• Experience in resins, coatings, paints, polymers or specialty chemicals is desirable.
