Here's what you'll need

ESSENTIAL SKILLS

At Senior or Principal level, you should possess a broad understanding of materials principles and processes gained through lab, research or site experience. You will also have an understanding of inspection and testing processes and implications.

Using your knowledge and experience of paints/coatings and steel, you’ll predominantly provide technical input into relevant inspections, failure analysis and repair options to provide practical solutions.

You will also be involved with the broader corrosion mitigation strategies and material specification / selection of projects.

This position is not focused on Cathodic Protection (CP) but additional qualifications and skills in that area will be beneficial.

You’ll have to possess and demonstrate:

☑️ Knowledge of coating and painting offshore and onshore facilities and structures, predominantly as part of the UK framework

☑️ Experience in preparing materials, paints and coatings specifications for new design and refurbishment projects

☑️ Understanding in materials selection and corrosion mechanisms affecting major infrastructure including highways, bridges, ports, major flood barriers and tunnels

☑️ Awareness of welding and associated corrosion/ materials issues

☑️ CAD experience

☑️ Bachelor or Masters Degree in Materials / Corrosion Science and relevant Consultancy experience and/or be willing to further develop your career on this field

In addition, you will have a strong CPD record in relevant areas, or H&S qualifications, such as CSCS card, and be willing to work towards confined space training and sea survival training.

Desirable, but not essential, is membership of relevant professional institutions and working towards chartered status.

** Due to the nature of some of the works we are involved with, eligibility for CT and SC clearance is required. **

Key Behaviours include:

• Good communication skills – able to communicate complex concepts simply and confident talking to clients

• Prioritisation – able to determine the most important things from lots of information

• Organised – able to handle different projects at once

• Open to change – new projects come and go and may have different priorities so you should be adaptable
