2. Offshore & Construction Support

   1. Provide engineering support during offshore installation campaigns as required
   2. Assist with mobilisation/demobilisation planning and offshore readiness
   3. Participate in HAZIDs, risk assessments, and constructability reviews
   4. Support subsea installation activities related to umbilicals, risers, flowlines (SURF), and associated structures

3. Cost, Schedule & Stakeholder Management

   3. Capture lessons learned and support continuous improvement initiatives

What’s On Offer

• Long-term project stability within a well-resourced team
• Exposure to complex subsea installation projects
• Career development supported by experienced project leadership
• Opportunity to grow alongside an expanding subsea and vessel portfolio
