The OPA are looking to appoint a Minor New Works Planner to take full responsibility for the capture, development, planning, scheduling, monitoring, and control of all planning activities associated with Minor New Works projects across the Oil and Pipelines managed estate. This includes coordinating and developing planned job packages, ensuring effective resource allocation, and maintaining robust project schedules to support the successful delivery of engineering works.
This newly created role will take full responsibility for the planning of OPAβs assurance programme and improvement works, to ensure the full notification scope is achieved. This includes assisting and coordinating all materials, services, and resources, as well as establishing appropriate scheduling logic between individual operations and tasks to support the safe, efficient, and cost-effective delivery of projects across the OPA estate.
Therefore, demonstrable experience of procurement processes is essential, ensuring the effective planning and management of materials so that they are ordered, delivered to site on time, and aligned with the overall project programme.
There will be a need to build strong credible working relationships with all internal stakeholders, in particular other members of the project delivery team, operations, maintenance, HSSEQ department, procurement, and other discipline engineering colleagues.
Travel to our UK sites will be a regular feature of this role, with some overnight stays. Therefore, a full (preferably clean) driving licence is essential for the successful candidate. There will also be occasional overseas travel when required.
