Key Responsibilities:

• Assist underwriting and claims teams by identifying risks and by providing detailed technical insight into the nature of risks as well as recommendations to clients on how risks might be mitigated.

The Person

• Extensive exposure to the mid- stream/ downstream energy sector.
• Likely to be degree qualified mechanical or chemical engineers, candidates are sought primarily from gas, refining, ethylene, and derivatives, BTX or ammonia/methanol industries although onshore oil and gas maybe considered.
• Experience within asset integrity, operational process safety or group audit would be beneficial. However, exposure to production and operational engineering, technical support, and maintenance functions, ideally on sites offering high -hazard complex multi-unit interactions, would be very relevant.
