Job description You will prepare documents and verify working methods for the offshore transport and immersion of tunnel elements, ensuring that execution teams receive clear and safe procedures before operations begin. Where you’ll work:
You will work on one of Northern Europe’s largest construction projects: a fixed link that will become the longest immersed tunnel in the world.
The Offshore Transport and Immersion work preparation team is responsible for all preparatory works related to the offshore transport and immersion of tunnel elements. This includes coordination with temporary and permanent works design teams, immersion engineering specialists, procurement, execution teams, and offshore marine operations.
The role is based in Rødbyhavn, Lolland, Denmark, either full-time or in a 4-week on / 2 weeks off rotation regime. During immersion operations, the role includes offshore involvement.
Your challenge:
Your challenge is to turn complex offshore transport and immersion concepts into clear, traceable and executable work methods.
You will help ensure that procedures, risk assessments, inspection and test plans, procurement specifications and readiness documentation are complete, current and aligned with project requirements, contract obligations and applicable offshore standards. As the project moves from preparation into execution, your focus will shift towards operational support, readiness verification, weather window monitoring and lessons learned.
What you’ll do:
Develop and detail work methods for the offshore transport and immersion of tunnel elements during the preparatory phase.
Document execution methods in work method statements, work procedures, risk assessments and inspection and test plans.
Coordinate with design teams, immersion specialists, draftspersons, procurement and execution teams to ensure specifications, drawings and data are current and complete.
Prepare technical specifications and quantities for procurement, including marine mooring equipment, lifting accessories, specialised immersion equipment and fabrication packages.
Support constructability and safety reviews by aligning working methods with execution constraints, offshore standards and project contract requirements.
Advise execution teams during transport and installation activities, including offshore support where required.
Contribute to readiness verification, go/no-go decision preparation, live weather window monitoring, offshore progress tracking and post-immersion lessons learned.
Profile
What you bring:
A background as a Civil Engineer with a civil marine construction or offshore construction specialism, Marine Engineer, Naval Architect, or equivalent vocational higher education or university qualification.
Minimum 5 years of experience as a Work Preparation Engineer, Project Engineer, Methods Engineer or in a similar role.
Previous experience with marine or offshore operations.
Good understanding of civil engineering principles and marine operations.
Ability to develop practical, safe and executable working methods from design information, operational constraints and project requirements.
Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively in an international, multicultural project environment.
Fluency in English.
Willingness to work in Denmark, go offshore during immersion operations and complete an STCW course.
Familiarity with offshore operational standards such as DNV-ST-N001, or willingness to quickly build working knowledge of these standards.
Experience with immersed tunnel projects, heavy marine transport, offshore installation, mooring systems or lifting operations.
Experience preparing inspection and test plans, risk assessments, work method statements and operational readiness checklists.
Experience coordinating technical input between engineering, procurement and execution teams.
