Job description
Local Unit & Position Description:
Our highly respected Risk Advisory department in the UK and Ireland, is primarily responsible for the delivery of consultancy-based safety, integrity and risk management services. We provide high quality advisory services to the onshore and offshore oil and gas sector (upstream, midstream and downstream) and increasingly, provide similar services to the evolving hydrogen and renewables sectors.
Within this, our specialist integrity teams deliver a range of critical consultancy services such as failure investigation, fitness for service assessment, stress analysis, life extension, risk based inspection, asset health assessment, vibration assessment and risk management, to operators in support of their ongoing operations.
We are also leading our industry in advising clients how to repurpose their existing assets for the transportation of hydrogen or carbon dioxide to support the energy transition and deliver the innovative solutions that our industry and planet needs. This multi-disciplinary approach, with materials and integrity engineers working alongside our other discipline experts drawn from safety, flow assurance and rotating equipment, is what makes what we do, unique.

Primarily based at our office in Loughborough (Leicestershire), the role will include some work at customer offices and sites in the UK and overseas, with offshore assignments a possibility, and will therefore require flexibility and a willingness to work on short to medium term assignments as required.
