We're looking for a contract engineer with excellent negotiation skills, to drive the performance of our contracts. With strong support from a positive employer, it's a great chance to develop your skills at one of Europe's biggest petro-chemical sites.
Where you fit in
You'll be based at our downstream manufacturing site at Pernis, Rotterdam - a joint oil refinery and chemicals manufacturing site that produces a broad range of everyday products, from paint to petrol.
This role fits in the space between our Contracting and Procurement (C&P), Turnaround (TA) and Projects teams. Based within a positive environment, you'll have access to unlimited learning and development opportunities to grow your technical, professional and leadership skills.
What's the role?
As Contract Engineer, you're going to be immersed within the whole contracting and contract management process, ensuring our contractors meet the agreed scope, timeline and quality. That means you'll be advising on contracting strategies, before contracts are awarded. And once awarded, you'll support the process, from managing contractual issues to effectively capturing lessons learned.
More specific duties will include:
Most importantly, you'll need to embrace the challenges of working at a large and complex site, from balancing concurrent contracts, all at different process stages, to confidently nurturing strong relationships with a variety of internal and external stakeholders. In addition, we'll be looking to you to find new ways of working and implement innovative solutions that'll drive performance.
