Project Engineering Manager Offshore

Building on our past. Ready for the future

Worley is a global professional services company of energy chemicals and resources experts. We partner with customers to deliver projects and create value over the life of their assets. Were bridging two worlds moving towards more sustainable energy sources while helping to provide the energy chemicals and resources needed now.

Role Purpose

The Project Engineering Manager (PEM) establishes and leads the framework for delivering engineering and design on EPC projects providing cross discipline coordination and supervision to ensure safe high-quality on-schedule and within-budget delivery. The PEM drives engineering execution for offshore and fast track projects managing interfaces across disciplines and supporting procurement and construction to enable predictable delivery outcomes.

Key Responsibilities:

• HSE Safety in Design & Sustainability
  • Champion HSE and sustainable engineering across all engineering and design activities.
  • Ensure design risks are identified communicated and mitigated early and throughout the project.
  • Drive a right-first-time culture through disciplined governance reviews and verification.
• Engineering Leadership & Multi Discipline Delivery (EPC / Detailed Engineering)
  • Lead the engineering team to deliver all discipline deliverables in line with scope quality schedule and budget.
  • Coordinate interfaces across Process Mechanical Piping Electrical Instrumentation Civil/Structural Telecoms and other disciplines as applicable.
  • Ensure disciplined engineering execution: clear deliverable ownership coordinated sequencing and timely issue resolution.
  • Lead/participate in key design reviews and 3D model reviews; ensure action closeout and design maturity at each stage.
• Fast Track / Accelerated Delivery
  • Develop and implement an engineering execution approach suitable for fast track delivery including out of sequence engineering where necessary.
  • Ensure engineering supports early procurement and construction needs while protecting technical integrity and minimizing rework.
  • Establish strong short interval control (look aheads interface tracking decision logs action registers) to maintain momentum.
• Project Set Up Planning & Controls Interface
  • Ensure project engineering fundamentals are established early: scope alignment deliverables list milestones resource plan and engineering execution approach.
  • Drive clarity of engineering scope and basis; ensure teams work to agreed requirements and approved assumptions.
  • Support project reporting by providing accurate engineering progress forecast risks and recovery actions.
• Procurement Vendor & Subcontract Support
  • Ensure engineering inputs to procurement are complete and robust (requisitions datasheets specifications TBE support clarifications and vendor data review coordination).
  • Coordinate multi discipline alignment for vendor document review and approvals to protect schedule and quality.
• Offshore / Site Support & Constructability
  • Ensure constructability operability and maintainability are embedded in the design.
  • Provide engineering leadership during construction support queries deviations and resolution of site issues as required.
• Customer & Stakeholder Management (ADNOC)
  • Act as a key technical interface with the customer maintaining strong working relationships and clear professional communication.
  • Lead technical alignment meetings and ensure requirements are understood and implemented across the engineering team.
• People Leadership
  • Lead and mentor discipline leads and engineering teams; ensure resourcing is appropriate and capability matches project challenges.
  • Promote collaboration accountability and team wellbeingespecially under high pressure fast track conditions.
    

Qualifications & Experience (Tailored)

Mandatory (Must Have):

• Bachelors degree in Engineering (or equivalent).
• Oil & Gas / Energy projects with strong EPC delivery exposure.
• Experience in a Project Engineering Manager (PEM) role leading multi discipline engineering delivery.
• Very strong experience in EPC detailed engineering delivery and governance.
• Strong offshore project experience (brownfield and/or greenfield).
• Previous ADNOC EPC experience mandatory (client interface approvals environment and delivery expectations).

Preferred (Highly Desirable):

• Experience on heavy topsides / mega offshore facilities in the ton class (e.g. large offshore platforms / float-over or equivalent installation constraints).
• Demonstrated exposure to engineering drivers typical of heavy topsides: integration complexity interface density layout maturity management weight growth management and constructability constraints.

Core Competencies:

• Strong multi discipline coordination and interface management.
• Leadership under schedule pressure; structured execution mindset for fast track delivery.
• High technical integrity and quality focus; strong review/verification discipline.
• Excellent stakeholder management and customer-facing communication.
• Team leadership coaching and performance-driven execution.
