The primary responsibility for an Offshore Convertor Platform (OCP) Structural Engineer is managing and reviewing design work undertaken by external contractors, to ensure it meets the requirements of the project.
The role will predominately be focussed on the structural design of the OCP topside and Foundation, but may assist on other structural scopes (e.g. WTG Foundations) where required to meet project requirements.
The role will report to the project Engineering Manager, but the project organisation is a matrix organisation and day to day direction of tasks may come from the OCP Package Manager, OCP Foundation Package Manager, and / or OCP Design Manager as appropriate.
The immediate role will be seconded to a large UK project within our clients portfolio. The project is currently in early phases of design. The role will be based in London.
