As an Electrical Engineer, you’ll be the responsible for defining, developing and executing control of the electrical elements of marine technical projects and for the day-to-day support of the Shell managed fleet of ships. You’ll coordinate the provision of technical advice to Shell’s fleet operations on a global basis. You’ll provide electrical engineering expertise on new build and conversion projects, ensuring that the associated designs,specifications and construction meet required construction and operational standards.
Specific responsibilities will involve:
• Providing specialist expertise and advice on developments in the relevant technology areas
• Participating in project teams for new ship construction and conversions,including the preparation of outline specifications,evaluation of tenders,negotiation with shortlisted bidders,plan approval,design discussions with builders,and ensuring attendance at commissioning and trials
• Reviewing proposed rule changes of classification societies,ensuring that what is proposed is safe,reasonable,not unduly costly and overall beneficial to the advancement of technical standards
• Maintaining external networks so as to keep abreast of developments in the relevant technology areas and feeding this into Shell projects.

As an Electrical Engineer you’ll have a degree or equivalent in electrical engineering and ideally be a Chartered Engineer.

This will demonstrate your experience in a range of electrical engineering activities including concept design development for new construction projects, ship repair activities, preparation of reports and other technical documentation, and you will be conversant with the relevant international standards and classification society rules.
With extensive practical and theoretical knowledge of relevant issues in ship construction and operations, equipment design, testing and commissioning, you’ll be able to demonstrate your knowledge of state-of-the-art marine electrical engineering. You’ll also have proven competence in failure mode analysis and causal investigation of electrical failures or incidents. A knowledge and understanding of the safe use of electrical equipment in potentially explosive environments is desirable; as is a knowledge of control and automation engineering, but this is not essential.
An excellent communicator with a high level of fluency in written and spoken English, you’ll have proven industry experience and the ability to work with little technical supervision. Ideally you’ll have written or contributed to the publication of papers in international journals or provided input at conferences.
