As a Mechanical Work Preparator with a focus on static equipment, you are responsible for preparing detailed and executable work packages for turnaround-related maintenance and repair of static equipment. You ensure that all work preparations prioritize safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness while aligning with project scope and planning.
The turnaround officially begins around January 2027.

Ensure compliance with applicable HSE regulations, industry standards, and internal procedures.
Identify and coordinate the procurement of required materials, tools, and services in collaboration with supply chain and vendors.
Perform field walk-downs to verify scope, assess access, and identify potential constraints or risks.
Develop clear job steps, resource estimates, technical drawings, and material specifications.
Plan for and coordinate any required scaffolding, insulation removal, lifting activities, or special access equipment.
Create and manage work orders using SAP (or similar CMMS) for planning, scheduling, and tracking progress.
Work closely with internal teams and contractors to align expectations and execution plans.
Optimize job packages based on past turnaround learnings, execution feedback, and continuous improvement principles.
Ensure readiness of work packages in line with turnaround milestones and execution windows.
Requirements
Technical degree or equivalent experience in mechanical engineering or industrial maintenance.
