Roles and Responsibilities

• Undertake and participate in concept, prefeasibility, and feasibility studies, collaborating with senior engineers, internal stakeholders, and EPCM partners to deliver complex feasibility assessments and innovative project designs.
• Develop comprehensive process engineering packages from concept through detailed design. Deliverables include mass and energy balances, process flow diagrams, P&IDs, process design criteria, process descriptions, control philosophy narratives, datasheets, and scopes of work, with proven application of the stage‑gate process (SG1 to SG4).
• Prepare execution, pre‑commissioning, and commissioning plans.
• Provide technical support during plant installation, pre‑commissioning, and commissioning activities.
• Develop process and project handover documentation to ensure smooth transition to operations.
• Facilitate and participate in HAZOP studies and multidisciplinary design reviews.
• Collaborate closely with C&I, electrical, piping, and mechanical engineering disciplines to generate accurate process‑related specifications and deliverables. 
• Optimize existing processes by applying value engineering and continuous improvement methodologies
• Prepare comprehensive process documentation—including detailed reports, PFDs, P&IDs, operating procedures, and related process‑package deliverables to ensure clarity, smooth execution, and seamless handover.
• Adhere to systematic document‑control processes to manage revisions of design and engineering documentation from concept stage through AFC (Approved for Construction) to final handover
• Facilitate multidisciplinary squad checks for process and project‑related documents to ensure accuracy, completeness, and alignment across engineering disciplines.
• Support the project manager in preparing the project handover pack and contributing to the project close‑out process
• Communicate effectively with colleagues by collaborating across engineering, scientific, and management teams to share insights, resolve issues, and align on project objectives
• Present technical findings and recommendations clearly and concisely to stakeholders, including management, clients, and regulatory bodies
• Prepare both technical and business reports to support project decision‑making and performance tracking.
• Support in the facilitation of the annual capital project budgeting process
• Support group projects with the development and roll out of governance processes, standards and procedures 
• Undertake and/or participate in Gate Reviews
• Provide project control support to business pertaining to project methodology and process as per the Capital project portfolio and project management governance guidelines
• Support with the development of project budgets, schedules and  execution strategies
• Maintain alignment with project teams, business unit objectives, and relationships with contractors, suppliers, internal and external stakeholders.
• Evaluate and assess project risks and contingency plans in addition to process safety related risk management.
• Regularly report on project progress, status, challenges and outcomes to stakeholders.
• Manage the completion of deliverables for multiple projects.
• Manage process development and optimization projects efficiently from planning, scheduling to execution, within budget and in line with timelines.

Qualifications and Experience

• Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Engineering in Chemical engineering 
• HAZOP facilitation certification 
• Minimum of 2 years’, and up to 5 years’ experience in process design and project controls
