Job description

Building on our past. Ready for the future
Worley is a global professional services company of energy, chemicals and resources experts headquartered in Australia.

  • Understands project cost build-up, gross margin, and cost drivers specific to Chemicals & Fuels projects.
  • Tracks engineering quantities, progress, and productivity.
  • Monitors cost and schedule performance and forecasts trends using analytical judgment.
  • Ensures change control processes are understood, applied, and documented.
  • Recognizes the cost impact of constructability, outage windows, and late engineering changes.

Execution Planning & Performance
  • Translates contract and regulatory requirements into a clear Worley engineering scope of services and deliverables.
  • Develops and supports engineering schedules and resource plans aligned with project and construction needs.
  • Manages engineering execution, coordination, and progress tracking.

  • Supports construction, pre-commissioning, commissioning, and startup activities as required for operating facilities.

Customer & Stakeholder Management
  • Understands customer business drivers, operating priorities, and key performance indicators.
  • Interfaces with customer engineering, operations, maintenance, and reliability stakeholders.
  • Manages relationships with customer representatives in accordance with established communication protocols.
