• Support construction and commissioning teams with permit planning, work interfaces, shutdowns, energisation activities and complex isolations
• Lead audits, inspections and assurance activities while investigating permit-related non-conformances and driving corrective actions
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to project personnel, LOTO personnel and permit coordinators on PTW and isolation requirements
• Maintain permit and isolation registers, monitor system performance and identify opportunities to improve safety, compliance and efficiency

About You

• Trade qualification aligned to construction, infrastructure, utilities, commissioning, maintenance or a related project environment
• Proven experience managing Permit to Work systems on major infrastructure, construction or industrial projects
• Strong working knowledge of LOTO, isolation management and energy control procedures across construction and commissioning environments
• Experience coordinating complex permit requirements with engineers, supervisors, subcontractors, project teams and client representatives
