The plant designer provides state‑of‑the‑art designs for existing and future operating plants during definition, planning and execution phases of CAPEX projects for Cement, Waste Management, Power, Logistic, Aggregate and Ready Mix, creating benefits in designing projects safely, on time, at lowest costs, and with the highest quality. The role elaborates on one or more projects in close cooperation with Engineering Managers, Discipline Engineers and the necessary drawing and documentation teams to define the project scope.

Plant Designer is responsible for elaborating and visualizing technically functional plant solutions that are safe, maintenance‑friendly, operation‑friendly and cost‑effective. Design work shall be carried out in a timely and cost‑effective manner, complying with safety and technical guidelines, standards and methods.

• Demonstrate a commitment to communicating, improving and adhering to safety policies in all work environments and areas.
• Elaborate and develop, for all types of projects (greenfield, brownfield, debottlenecking, …) in the PM&E scope and for all project phases, the necessary documents/drawings required for basic engineering and for tendering such as:
  • Mass flow diagram (contributes)
  • Plot plan, general layout
  • Flow sheets / flow chart of the proposed solution(s)
  • General arrangement drawings indicating dimensions
  • Equipment list
  • Building schedule
  • Plant section layout
  • Single line diagram
  • 2D and 3D modeling (Navis Works, Revit, ACAD tools, etc.)
• Maintain and extend the plant design database.
• Communicate: reinforce the use of common language, identify, coordinate and disseminate manufacturing educational resources to facilitate shared learning and reinforce good practices.
• Perform plant visit and survey to identify interactions/interferences with existing equipment.
• Integrate investment cost‑reduction guidelines when developing plot plan, general layout and plant section general arrangement.
• Integrate safety in design methods and principles and country‑specific standards:
  • Define appropriate equipment
  • Develop and optimize design solutions with group project stakeholders and suppliers
