  • Applying knowledge of HSE standards (e.g. pressure relief definition & design, basis of safety definition, flammability, safety instrumented systems).
  • Acting as responsible process engineer in process risk assessment teams, applying knowledge of safety assessment systems (e.g. HAZOP etc.) to complete risk assessments.
  • Providing scope definition and process design data for capital project and plant modifications.
  • Driving change projects and process improvements from innovation to development to implementation.
  • Leading the commissioning of projects and modification to ensure that design intent is met and production is established safely and effectively.
  • Coaching & mentoring of graduate process engineers on our IChemE accredited graduate scheme.

Qualifications

  • Must have degree level education in chemical or process engineering, at least BEng or MEng equivalent.
  • Typically, 4+ years' experience working as a Chemical Process Engineer in a chemical manufacturing environment or related role.
  • Be a Chartered Engineer and full Member of the Institute of Chemical Engineers (MIChemE) or actively working towards this.
  • Knowledge of process risk assessment systems (e.g. HAZOP etc.), and relevant HSE standards (safety instrument systems, pressure relief and DSEAR etc).
  • Strong influencing skills
  • Prior experience in speciality or fine chemical manufacture, or pharmaceutical industry is advantageous
  • Experience commissioning capital projects on a top tier COMAH site.
  • Practical experience & theoretical knowledge in batch chemical process engineering.
  • Ability to work independently and plan and control own work
  • Experience delivering continuous improvement – awareness and use of a range of LEAN / Six Sigma or other tools, techniques and an understanding of the desired mindset.

Additional Information

  • A culture that celebrates diversity & inclusion, promotes professional development, and strives for a work-life balance that supports the team members.
  • Extensive benefits package including a generous pension scheme, bonus scheme, private medical & life insurance.
  • Up to 31.5 days annual holiday plus 8 UK bank holidays.
  • 36-hour working week.
