Title:

Roles and Responsibilities

The Construction Lead oversees the management and organization of construction and field personnel, directing on-site efforts through their team. Reporting directly to the Construction Manager, their key responsibilities include:

Role Overview:

• Enhancing construction safety by minimizing on-site exposure through modularization, standardization, and maximizing off-site construction.
• Contributing to the development of brownfield construction strategies and planning initiatives for project opportunities pre-FID.
• Identifying and resolving construction challenges, actively monitoring on-site productivity, and advising the Construction Manager on potential efficiency improvements.
• Overseeing brownfield construction planning initiatives for post-FID projects.
• Providing input into design improvements, contracting strategies, and execution planning with a focus on constructability, ensuring alignment with HSE, cost, schedule, and quality objectives.
• Serving as a key member of the Project Team, ensuring alignment and coordination across the organization to support successful construction execution.
• Acting as the Construction Interface from project inception to field execution.
• Collaborating with the Project Engineer and EPCM Construction Management Team to develop construction strategies and execution plans, including cost and schedule optimization.
• Managing multiple projects simultaneously.
• Work Package Development: Preparing and overseeing detailed work packages for electrical and instrumentation (E&I) activities to align with project requirements.
• Team Coordination: Ensuring collaboration between engineering, procurement, and construction teams for timely execution of E&I tasks.
• Documentation Oversight: Reviewing and updating work package documentation as required.
• Compliance Assurance: Ensuring E&I construction aligns with project specifications, safety standards, and industry regulations.
• Commissioning Support: Contributing to the development of commissioning plans and procedures for E&I activities.

Accountabilities & Expectations

• Align construction efforts with the overall project scope, quality, cost, and schedule expectations in coordination with the Project Engineer and EPCM Construction Management Team.
• Ensure that engineering and procurement deliverables are planned in line with the construction sequence and handover requirements.
• Advocate for cold work, modularization, and off-plot construction strategies to minimize HSSE risks on site.
• Ensure the final design includes an appropriate construction risk assessment versus economic benefits, leading and facilitating Constructability Reviews.
• Implement a Work Face Planning process into project planning and execution in coordination with Project Engineer and EPCM Construction Management.
• Ensure construction activities are effectively integrated into the total project plan, supporting EPCM interfaces with operations and other disciplines.
