- Strengthen asset reliability through preventive/predictive maintenance strategies, RCA, shutdown/turnaround planning, and integrity programmes
- Ensure compliance with German occupational safety requirements and site HSE management systems, including major hazard controls where applicable
- Lead and participate in risk assessments (HAZOP/LOPA), incident investigations, and corrective action closure
- Manage contractors and safe systems of work (Permit-to-Work, isolations/LOTO, method statements and risk assessments)
- Monitor and improve KPIs across safety, production, quality, reliability, and budget performance
- Collaborate with Operations, Engineering, Maintenance, Laboratory, Supply Chain, and external vendors to deliver site objectives
- Support internal and external audits and inspections; implement continuous improvement programmes
- Coach and develop teams through training, competency development, and leadership support
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) in Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical/Instrumentation Engineering, Chemistry, or a related discipline (a Master’s degree is advantageous for some roles)
- Typically 7–15+ years of experience in petrochemicals, refining, specialty chemicals, polymers, industrial gases, or comparable process manufacturing environments
- Demonstrated experience in one or more functional tracks: operations leadership, process engineering, reliability/maintenance, rotating equipment, HSE/process safety, projects, quality/laboratory, or commercial/technical support
- Working knowledge of high-hazard safety and process safety expectations (risk assessments, contractor management, management of change, Permit-to-Work systems; alignment with German and EU regulatory requirements where applicable)
- Familiarity with common plant systems and tools such as CMMS/EAM (e.g., SAP/Maximo), process historians (e.g., PI System), and standard engineering documentation practices
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to lead cross-functional initiatives
