We are looking for a highly organised and detail-oriented professional to support the coordination and administration of customer enquiries, tendering activities, and project execution.

• Maintain and update the Project Status Report (PSR) weekly, focusing on cost variance, risk and opportunity analysis, and key performance indicators, while ensuring timely invoicing and cash collection in collaboration with finance.
• Monitor commercial risks through regular reviews of the risk register, identify variation order opportunities, and implement mitigation strategies.
• Oversee the development and approval of operational procedures, conduct pre-mobilisation briefings including walkthroughs and risk assessments, and assess offshore team competencies.
• Forecast technician requirements to support resource planning and ensure timely project closure, including reconciliation of purchase orders and final PSR issuance confirming gross margin and cash collection.
• Capture client feedback and document lessons learned to enhance future project delivery and strengthen collaboration with internal service functions.

  Qualifications and Experience

• Strong administrative and organisational skills ideally gained within an equipment hire/oil services environment.
• Ability to multi-task effectively, be confident and professional, and comfortable working to tight deadlines whilst maintaining a high level of accuracy.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• High attention to detail with problem-solving abilities.
• Familiarity with health, safety and environmental (HSE) practices in operational settings.
