Job Description

Across 14 sites, multiple partners, and a demanding delivery schedule, a program only moves forward when someone connects the pieces.

Key Responsibilities

Health, Safety, and Environment & Quality Leadership: Build a culture of safety across all sites, in line with company, client, and Saudi regulatory requirements. Champion inspection discipline, documentation readiness, and timely closure of non-conformities and punch-list items. Uphold STOP WORK authority and lifesaving rules, and partner with project managers to run continuous-improvement sessions (such as kaizens) that resolve operational challenges.
I&C Operations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia: Own key performance metrics for I&C, including partner scope. Oversee site offices, accommodations, and team-building for the I&C team. Support logistics, planning, and supply chain functions across KSA, serve as point of contact for internal audits, and co-lead root cause analyses (RCAs) affecting equipment or sites. Ensure field teams are ready for erection, inspection, testing, punch-list closure, and turnover, and track spare parts readiness for operations and reliability.
Program Governance & EPC Interface: Coordinate I&C activities across all 14 sites alongside project managers, acting as the central point of contact with EPC partners and owners to align execution strategy and resolve risks or interface bottlenecks. Manage the risks and opportunities (R&O) register and claims, coordinate closely with the planning function to log site events, and support local inventory strategy.
Site Staffing & Resource Mobilization: Work with project managers to mobilize and assign site managers, supervisors, material managers, and field engineers, and negotiate with local resource companies to secure the people you need.

Experience leading field teams, with strong presentation, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
