What we look for

A Project Delivery Engineer, Project Manager or Process Safety Lead who thinks strategically, has a clear view of the bigger picture and is willing to go the extra mile. What’s more, as a seasoned people manager, you’ll be just as at ease working with teams, sharing innovative ideas and delivering to targets.
