Our client is the UK engineering projects division of a major international energy company. From a landmark, modern integrated operations office in central Basingstoke – with ample parking and only a short walk from the mainline railway station – it develops projects and provides expert owner-engineering support to the group’s businesses worldwide. The division is helping to lead the energy transition, combining traditional oil and gas activity with decarbonised and innovative solutions such as carbon capture and storage, hydrogen and renewables as the group moves towards a net-zero future.
Project scop
eThe role sits within an owner-engineering organisation delivering a portfolio of energy projects across the full life cycle, from feasibility through FEED to execution. Alongside established business areas, the division is expanding decarbonised and innovative solutions – carbon capture and storage, hydrogen and renewables – offering the opportunity to develop skills and capabilities in new technologies on dynamic international projects. This is a pivotal time in the UK and international energy business, and the Engineering Manager plays a central part in ensuring engineering execution meets project objectives while maximising value for the business and its stakeholders
