Department: Field Construction / Site Operations
Reports To: Site Construction Manager
Job Purpose
Directly oversees and leads all field construction activities related to electrical and instrumentation systems. Ensures that high-voltage (HV)/low-voltage (LV) power distribution, cabling, sub-station switchgears, transformers, and instrument systems are installed, tested, and pre-commissioned safely, on time, and according to approved engineering drawings and quality specifications.
Key Responsibilities
a) Field Execution & Supervision: Lead site supervisors, foremen, and field crews in executing electrical and instrumentation installations (power distribution, cable tray routing, cable pulling, termination, transformer setups, switchgears, lighting systems, and earthing/lightning protection).
b) Testing & Pre-Commissioning: Direct testing procedures, including insulation resistance (meggering), high-potential (Hi-Pot) testing, primary/secondary injection tests on switchgears, and transformer continuity/oil tests.
c) Resource Optimization: Allocate daily manpower, tools, heavy equipment, and materials across E&I work fronts to maximize productivity and meet baseline milestones.
d) Safety & QA/QC Compliance: Enforce strict adherence to site HSE standards (LOTO procedures, permit-to-work systems, hot work safety) and quality requirements during electrical installations.
e) Inter-departmental Coordination: Coordinate closely with Civil and Mechanical Superintendents to manage interfaces (e.g., underground electrical duct banks, mechanical equipment power hookups, transformer pads).
f) Client & Vendor Interface: Lead joint site inspections with client inspectors and coordinate vendor technical representatives during main equipment erection and testing.
Key Qualifications & Requirements
a) Education: Diploma or Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical / Electronics Engineering.
b) Experience: Minimum 10 years of experience strictly in the role of E&I Superintendent within major industrial, power plant, or oil & gas projects.
c) Technical Knowledge: Deep understanding of power cabling, high/medium/low voltage switchgears, substation installation, transformers, earthing networks, loop checking, and international codes (NEC, IEC, IEEE).
d) Leadership: Strong leadership, site decision-making, and labor management abilities.
