Job Purpose
We are seeking a Project Delivery Engineer to lead the delivery of high-impact capital (CapEx) projects within our chemical processing department, which is a dynamic manufacturing environment. This role is ideal for an engineer who thrives on end-to-end ownership of complex process and equipment investments, driving improvements in safety, capacity, reliability, and operational performance.
You will play a critical role in shaping and executing multi-disciplinary capital projects—from early concept and business case development through detailed design, construction, and startup—while influencing key stakeholders and delivering measurable business value.
Job Responsibilities
•
Lead and deliver capital projects (CapEx) within the process area, managing the full lifecycle from concept, justification, and design through execution, commissioning, and handover.
•
Own project scope, budget, schedule, and risk management, ensuring delivery against business and operational targets.
•
Partner with operations to identify opportunities for capacity expansion, cost optimization, and process improvements, translating needs into scalable engineering solutions.
•
Develop and manage technical deliverables (P&IDs, layouts, specifications, calculations, and engineering documentation) to support project execution.
•
Drive vendor selection, contractor management, and equipment procurement, ensuring quality, cost-effectiveness, and timeline adherence.
•
Lead installation, commissioning, and startup activities, ensuring seamless integration into live operations.
•
Ensure compliance with engineering standards, safety requirements, and corporate governance processes, including capital approval frameworks.
•
Champion Process Safety Management (PSM), leading activities such as Management of Change (MOC), HAZOP/PHA participation, and risk mitigation.
•
Collaborate cross-functionally with operations, maintenance, automation, quality, and SHE teams to ensure sustainable project outcomes.
•
Track project performance and proactively resolve issues to ensure successful delivery.
