We are seeking an experienced offshore operational leader to support the implementation and embedding of Work Management and Activity Planning processes across North Sea offshore operations.

This is not a traditional planning or scheduling role.

The successful candidate will work alongside Offshore Leaders, Supervisors, Planners, Schedulers and Operations personnel to help establish the behaviours, disciplines and routines necessary to consistently deliver effective work management, activity readiness and schedule execution.

The role will require an offshore presence, coaching teams in the field, observing current practices, reinforcing expectations and helping leaders create a culture where work is planned, prepared, scheduled and executed in a disciplined and predictable manner.

The objective is to improve work readiness, schedule compliance, execution efficiency and workforce productivity through practical coaching and leadership engagement.

The successful candidate will:

• Coach offshore leaders in the practical application of Work Management and Activity Planning processes
• Support the development of consistent planning, preparation and scheduling behaviours offshore
• Work closely with OIMs, Production Team Leads, Maintenance Team Leads, Supervisors and Site Schedulers
• Reinforce readiness-based decision making and planning discipline
• Drive greater focus on work quality, planning quality and execution readiness
• Support effective validation, prioritisation and backlog management practices
• Observe and challenge behaviours that undermine schedule stability and execution performance
• Coach supervisors in the use of approved schedules as execution management tools
• Improve understanding of work readiness, constraint management and schedule commitment
• Facilitate discussions around barriers to execution and identify practical improvement opportunities
• Support the development of effective daily, weekly and planning horizon review routines
• Act as a trusted advisor to offshore leadership teams during the embedding period
• Identify capability gaps and recommend sustainable improvement actions

The successful candidate will help offshore teams to:

• Consistently follow the Work Management lifecycle
• Demonstrate stronger planning and preparation discipline
• Improve schedule compliance and schedule stability
• Increase confidence in work readiness assessments
• Reduce work execution delays caused by avoidable readiness issues
• Improve cross-functional collaboration between Operations, Maintenance, Planning and Scheduling
• Strengthen supervisor ownership of execution performance
• Improve utilisation of offshore execution resources
• Embed sustainable behaviours that remain in place after the assignment concludes

You will be a highly credible offshore leader with the ability to influence and coach at all levels of the organisation.

You will have…
