Deputy Commissioning Manager

JOB DESCRIPTION: DEPUTY COMMISSIONING MANAGER

LOCATION: 100MW POWER PLANT PROJECT

JOB SUMMARY
We are looking for a deadline-driven Deputy Commissioning Manager to support the Commissioning Manager in leading a multi-disciplinary team. You will help verify system performance and reliability, bridging the gap between construction and handover. In this role, you will act as a key figure for project excellence, focusing on design optimization, interoperability, and sustainability while directly overseeing daily field operations and team coordination.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Commissioning Planning: Assist in developing end-to-end commissioning plans, schedules, task allocations, and documentation for all phases (L1-L5/6).
• Team Leadership & Coordination: Supervise the core team of engineers and technicians on-site. Coordinate closely with vendors, subcontractors, and construction management to ensure seamless integration.
• Documentation Oversight: Manage the Turn Over Package (TOP) process. Track progress, checklists, test reports, and "punch lists" diligently.
• Technical Verification: Oversee functional performance testing (FPT) and Integrated Systems Testing (IST). Validate that all systems meet performance and reliability targets.
• Risk Mitigation: Identify technical or schedule-related risks early. Devise practical "workaround" strategies to maintain project timelines.
• Stakeholder Reporting: Liaise with clients and senior project management. Provide KPI updates on progress, quality compliance, and energy-reduction targets.
• Policy Compliance: Implement corporate project policies, procedures, and instructions within assigned mechanical work activities or applicable project-specific guidelines.
• Managerial Support: Advise the Commissioning Manager and Resident Project Manager of potential problems, work interferences, or schedule difficulties. Assist actively in resolving these issues.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Experience: Typically 5-10 years of experience in commissioning or project engineering, preferably within mission-critical sectors (e.g., Data Center, Pharmaceuticals, or Power Generation).
• Education: Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Building Services Engineering. Professional certifications like CCP (Certified Commissioning Professional) are highly valued.
• Technical Skills: Deep understanding of MV/LV distribution systems, HVAC, electrical distribution, BMS/SCADA systems, and reading P&IDs or blueprints.
• Software Proficiency: Expertise in project management tools like Primavera P6 or MS Project and specialized commissioning software.
• Punch List Resolution: Speed and accuracy in closing out system deficiencies found during testing.
• Handover Efficiency: Success in transitioning systems to the operations team with zero safety incidents and minimal rework.
• Schedule Adherence: Proven ability to manage the "critical path" during the intense final weeks of a project under pressure.
