About the Role

• Deliver and Manage Composite Projects: Lead small-to-medium jobs from planning through close-out, acting as the key point of contact for clients and site teams. While engineers own the technical design, you'll coordinate delivery and ensure smooth execution.

• Autonomy with Support: Operate with independence and responsibility, while being supported by a collaborative technical and operational team. You’ll have input into project decisions and influence how scopes are executed.

• Ongoing Development and Upskilling: Continue building your expertise through targeted training, exposure to innovative composite technologies, and career development pathways into senior project or leadership roles.

• Field Engagement Experience: Willing and able to visit site when required, understand the realities of operations, and integrate that knowledge into better planning and communication.

• Critical Thinking and Commercial Awareness: Can assess risks, prioritise effectively, and track scope, budget, and schedule. Understands the importance of accurate cost tracking and ensuring we recover charges.

• Team Collaboration with Accountability: Works independently but contributes to the wider FUZE team, provides feedback, supports continuous improvement, and is open to coaching others or being coached.

• Experience in dynamic, operations-focused roles with direct client engagement, applicable across sectors such as industrial services, construction, infrastructure, utilities, manufacturing, mining, oil and gas.

• Bring a can-do attitude to solving client challenges, balancing technical constraints with practical solutions. You’ll bridge engineering requirements and client needs, helping deliver what’s possible while knowing when to set clear boundaries.
