Oman Role

Summary:

We are seeking an experienced Site Quality Manager with a strong, proven track record in wind farm projects, from manufacturing through commissioning and handover. This role requires deep hands‑on expertise in factory/plant quality, particularly during pre‑FAT and FAT execution, as well as the ability to independently identify, analyze, and resolve quality issues both at the source (plant) and on‑site. The Site Quality Manager will lead a team of 6 Quality Engineers, 2 NDT Inspectors, and 4 Trainees, while acting as the primary quality interface with clients, OEMs, and internal stakeholders.

The ideal candidate is a decisive, on‑the‑ground problem solver who drives corrective actions from root cause to closure, ensuring project quality and timely delivery.

Key Responsibilities:

FAT & Plant Quality Oversight (Primary Focus) Lead and actively participate in Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) for all major wind turbine components, including nacelles, hubs, generators, gearboxes, blades, and towers. Review, challenge, and approve FAT procedures, test plans, and acceptance criteria prior to execution. Act as the primary quality authority during FAT, making real‑time, independent decisions on test failures, deviations, and non‑conformances.

Ensure all FAT results are rigorously documented, verified, and formally signed off before shipment release. Collaborate closely with plant quality teams to resolve manufacturing non‑conformances and implement effective corrective actions before components leave the factory. Conduct supplier quality audits and oversee pre‑shipment inspections to minimize site rework, installation delays, and cost overruns.

On‑Site Quality Issue Resolution (Hands‑On Decision Making) Serve as the single point of authority for all quality issues arising during site installation, commissioning, and handover. Lead root cause analysis (RCA) for major defects, deviations, and failures, driving timely and technically sound corrective and preventive actions (CAPA). Independently evaluate, disposition, and approve resolutions for all NCRs (Non‑Conformance Reports) and critical deviations without dependency on remote support.

Track and manage retrofit and repair of major components, including gearbox, generator, blades, and main shaft, overseeing rework quality, retesting, and final acceptance. Interface directly with client representatives and OEM engineers to resolve quality conflicts, negotiate acceptable solutions, and maintain project momentum.

Wind Farm Project Experience (End‑to‑End) Apply proven hands‑on experience in utility‑scale wind farm projects from manufacturing through site installation, commissioning, and final handover. Demonstrate understanding of the full project lifecycle, including logistics, erection sequencing, electrical and mechanical completion, pre‑commissioning, and reliability testing. Apply lessons learned from previous wind farm projects to anticipate quality risks, optimize inspection strategies, and improve overall project execution.

Support project management with quality inputs for scheduling, resource planning, and risk mitigation specific to wind turbine construction.

Team Leadership & Technical Mentoring Manage, mentor, and develop a quality team comprising 6 Quality Engineers, 2 NDT Inspectors, and 4 Trainees. Assign inspection resources based on competency and workload, ensuring full coverage of all quality activities across project components and stages. Conduct regular performance reviews, on‑the‑job training, and technical coaching to strengthen team capability in defect identification, inspection techniques, and resolution methodologies.
