Key responsibilities include:

• Monitoring and optimising the performance of assigned refinery process units to maximise production efficiency and minimise operating costs.

• Identifying, troubleshooting, and resolving process, equipment, and operational issues to ensure safe and reliable plant operation.

• Leading and supporting process engineering studies, conceptual design packages, and evaluations for small capital and improvement projects.

• Applying a strong understanding of refinery economics and process value chains to identify opportunities for value creation and operational improvement.

• Developing equipment sizing calculations and preparing technical documentation, including equipment datasheets and engineering specifications.

• Maintaining and updating process safety information, including P&IDs, operating envelopes, and associated technical documentation.

• Preparing technical reports, engineering studies, performance reviews, and technical memoranda to support decision-making and knowledge sharing.

• Identifying plant constraints and leading investigations and optimisation studies to improve unit performance and capacity.

• Planning, coordinating, and evaluating plant test runs to support process optimisation, LP model updates, and operational improvements.

• Providing technical guidance and responses to deviations from Safe Operating Limits (SOLs), Integrity Operating Windows (IOWs), and Critical Process Variables (CPVs).

• Managing and completing Management of Change (MOC) activities in accordance with company and regulatory requirements.

• Supporting refinery Turnarounds and Catalyst Regeneration activities by delivering process engineering work scopes and achieving key turnaround milestones.

• Coaching, mentoring, and developing junior engineers, graduates, and trainees while promoting strong engineering, safety, and operational excellence standards.

• Developing and maintaining process models, simulations, mass balances, and energy balances to support optimisation and long-term planning activities.

• Ensuring compliance with environmental legislation and company standards through the identification, reporting, mitigation, and elimination of environmental risks and deficiencies.

• Collaborating effectively with multidisciplinary teams, including Operations, Mechanical Engineering, Control Systems, Planning, Safety, Environmental, and Project Engineering functions to deliver business objectives.
