We’re looking for an experienced Utilities Engineer to take the lead on water and steam systems across the plant. If you enjoy solving operational problems, improving system reliability, and working closely with both vendors and on‑site teams, this role will give you plenty of ownership and impact.

What You’ll Do

• Troubleshoot water‑related issues using process knowledge, data trends, and modelling tools.
• Lead improvement projects from idea to implementation, including validating savings.
• Monitor KPIs and take action to protect asset integrity and system health.
• Work with water treatment vendors and utility suppliers to review performance, contracts, and reliability opportunities.
• Support new projects involving steam systems, water quality requirements, and treatment program selection.
• Manage changes to treatment programs, automation upgrades, and supplier transitions.
• Use digital dashboards and alarms to strengthen system oversight.
• Update stakeholders on system risks, performance, and mitigation plans.
• Collaborate with global water experts to align on best practices.

What You Bring

• Degree in Engineering (Chemical preferred).
• Min 3 to 5 + years working with water treatment programs in chemical, refining, or petrochemical plants.
• Strong understanding of boilers, cooling water, demineralized systems, waste heat recovery, and steam systems.
• Familiarity with corrosion/failure mechanisms in plant operations.
• Comfortable with data analysis, process modelling, and root cause investigations.
