Operations Coordinator

The Operations Coordinator is a key enabling role within Enshore Subsea's project execution team. Working under the direction of the Operations Manager, the post holder is responsible for ensuring that all operational readiness activities are planned, coordinated, and delivered on time and within budget across the full project lifecycle — from early mobilisation planning through to first-of-steel and daily operational rhythm.

The role spans barge and vessel readiness, mission-equipment integration, cable load-out logistics, port and quayside organisation, and real-time operational follow-up, making it a pivotal interface between onshore project teams, port authorities, client representatives, and offshore crews.

Due to the operational nature of this role, candidates should be flexible and willing to work up to seven days a week when required. Any additional days worked may attract compensation in accordance with applicable French statutory requirements and company policy.

• Develop and own the cable load-out plan in close cooperation with the Cable Engineer, vessel crew, and port authorities, covering scheduling, equipment requirements, personnel mobilisation, and health & safety controls.
• Coordinate with the port/terminal operator to secure quayside access, berth windows, crane and equipment hire, and utilities required for load-out operations.
• Act as the single point of contact for all quayside logistics during the load-out campaign, including traffic management, security access, visitor coordination, and waste management.
• Oversee and monitor cable transfer operations in real time, ensuring adherence to approved procedures, route maps, and tension / speed limits.
• Maintain an accurate record of cable quantities loaded, drum/turntable configurations, and any product deviations, and ensure these are reflected in as-built documentation.
• Coordinate the mobilisation of specialist equipment to the quayside and ensure timely removal post-load-out.
• Ensure compliance with port health and safety regulations, and interface with the project HSE function for RAMS approval and permit-to-work management during quayside activities.
• Develop and manage the overall Mobilisation Plan, including personnel mobilisation schedules, equipment installation…
