Planning and progressing design and test activities to meet the required delivery dates.
Managing change during the project lifecycle using appropriate change management processes.
Performing factory testing of control systems leading to a formal Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) with customer and classification society.
Supporting the commissioning and sea-trials phase of the project; normally from the office but with the possibility of visiting the vessel.
Providing technical advice and assistance to the sales, commissioning, and service teams.
We are looking for a committed and professional individual with:

Willingness to travel and to spend periods of time on commissioning activities domestically and overseas.
You can expect from us:
~ Challenging and exciting projects.
