Project Manager

I. PURPOSE OF ROLE

The Project Manager is initially accountable for establishing and mobilising the project objectives, as stated in the Statement of Requirement (SOR), during the preliminary project development stages of the project (Select). The Project Manager is then responsible for accomplishing the project objectives as stated in the SOR. The Project Manager is therefore BP's representative and is responsible for implementing BP's requirements specific to the project as well as the company’s requirements generally. To do so, the Project Manager must bridge the gap between the business (who identifies the opportunity the capital project addresses), operations and engineering (who ensure a technical solution is feasible and workable) and finally the contractors responsible for delivery of the project. The Project Manager’s purpose is to ensure that these competing interests are balanced for the benefit of BP.

This is a 24-month contract role.
