As Technical Lead, you will be responsible for driving the technical delivery of equipment from design to operation. This will include extensive collaboration inside and outside the business, and drafting technical documentation to define, communicate, track and deliver the project’s functional and technical requirements.

 Technical leadership of process equipment delivery; driving projects from concept through to

completion. This is delivered through close collaboration and coordination; between internal teams

and external parties

 Lead from the front: drive the completion of project goals on-site and in-person as required. This is

likely to include international travel to plant locations.

 Analyse and Communicate project progress to internal and external stakeholders, using tools such as:

o System FMEA

o Mechanical Design modelling tools (CAD)

o Computer-based simulations

o Validation & verification testing; experiment design and execution

o Design-based safety & risk analysis

 Task-based project management; scoping, forecasting, planning and tracking work packages including

resource identification & forecasting, time, cost and risk

 Develop Systems Engineering processes, such as requirements management, validation

planning and acceptance criteria definition

 Lead, review and deliver requirements management activities across various stages of the Process /

Plant development lifecycle. This will include capture and definition of requirements as well as

managing and communicating change

 Coach, train and mentor others in business to develop the team’s understanding and capability in

Engineering principles, tools and methods

 Support wider business improvement activities such as Quality, Safety and Operations; working with

other departments & stakeholders

Essential Criteria:

 A degree in mechanical, electrical, chemical or similar engineering, or equivalent level of experience

 Demonstrable and extensive experience in a relevant Engineering roles including positions of

technical leadership

 This role requires international travel to plant locations and to suppliers on occasion

 The ability to perform complex engineering analyses, such as chemical reaction kinetics, system sizing

models, assessing equipment performance to drive improvements.

 Competent computer skills such as excel formulae, visio and CAD drafting software (company uses

SolidWorks)

 Ability to assume responsibility, be flexible, perform duties and handle multiple tasks safely under

potentially stressful / time-constrained conditions

 The ability to effectively communicate, both verbally and in writing, with other individuals, teams,

customers, and stakeholders of the business, at various levels of the organization, in a business-like

and professional manner

 Take initiative and be proactive in addressing issues. Quickly and efficiently complete tasks

Desirable Criteria:

 Qualified, trained or experienced in technical disciplines related to the job such as

o Engineering System design e.g. v-model Systems Engineering

o Pressure and piping system engineering

o Electrical and control engineering

o Engineering for regulatory and standards compliance

o Engineering project management

o FMEA

o Problem solving methodologies

 Experience in related industrial areas such as chemical plant, industrial equipment design, Pressure

systems, Piping systems, Electro-mechanical equipment design, DVP and Test methodologies.

 Driving licence and ability to travel within the UK and abroad
