Key job responsibilities
1. Work closely with the Global Constructability Principal and the global Construction Management teams to ensure consistency of approach.
2. Drive practical constructability standards in design documentation.
3. Drive commissionability improvements in our designs.
4. Drive process improvements in the hand off from design to construction/commissioning.
5. Optimise the engineering input post design completion - driving consistent roles and responsibilities and accountability.

A day in the life
As a Senior Constructability Engineer you will be involved in the entire process of a project, from site selection all the way through into operations. You will act as a conduit between Design Engineering and all other teams, providing pragmatic and practical engineering-based support to both DE and associated teams. Delivery issues will be both presented to you by our own team and other associated teams, but you will also actively seek to recognize problems and develop solutions. Resolution of these issues will require a thorough understanding of the process of design and construction to enable a robust and manageable solution to be developed, always considering the best interests of the AWS business.
