JOB DESCRIPTION

Wood is recruiting for an Instrument / Operations Technician on a core basis for Harbour Jasmine. The ideal candidate will be a time-served Instrument Technician with the desire to develop into Operations alongside.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Instrumentation & control technicians are responsible for the assembly, installation, removal and replacement,

An integral aspect of the instrumentation & control technician is the ability to locate and identify faults in a timely
manner to restore plant and equipment to acceptable conditions. The wide range of possible equipment and
systems also require a good knowledge of, and the ability to effectively use, an equally wide range of test and
measuring equipment. Instrumentation & control technicians typically need a good understanding of engineering
theory, the functions of components within systems and the effect on system operation of failure.

deliver work within given specifications.
• Demonstrate team working skills and interact with team members in a positive and professional manner.
• Work within an overall risk control strategy which has been developed by safety specialists and includes

• Deal promptly and effectively with problems within their control and report those that have been, and those
that cannot be, solved.
• Take responsibility for supervising and mentoring others where appropriate.
• Demonstrate the ability to coordinate work scopes and SIMOPS effectively within a wider team, as required.
• Demonstrate effective handover of responsibility and equipment at the end of a task.
• Take responsibility and ownership of personal development, set targets to plan on how these will be achieved.
• Support operational requirements, achieve targets and maintain records as required, thereby minimising
backlog and downtime.
• Maintain compliance with legislative requirements and company policies, procedures and standards.
• Maintain and demonstrate ongoing technical competence and skill set to current standards and updates.
• Support innovation and development for improvements.

QUALIFICATIONS

The instrumentation & control technician will:
• Have the required competencies to assemble, install, carry out preventative maintenance, repair, diagnose
faults and remove and replace, and dissemble instrumentation and control systems and their associated

practices, including their responsibilities with regards to reporting lines and procedures.
• Understand the preparation and reinstatement requirements in respect of the work area, materials and
equipment, and the possible consequences of incorrect actions in these areas.
• Be able to read and interpret relevant engineering drawings, related specifications, quality standards and
equipment manuals, and to follow work instructions and relevant plans and schedules.
• Understand which tools and equipment to use, and when, and will follow relevant training, methods and
techniques and quality control and safety procedures for their use.
• Understand their responsibilities for ensuring the care and security of tools and equipment used.
• Understand the types of defects and testing anomalies that can occur, how to identify them, and what action
to take.
• Diagnose function and test equipment on return to service
• Be able to handle a range of digital information, technology and equipment to support work related tasks and
to communicate information.
