F50261111P9A1: Package Manager Onshore Cable Installation HVDC | 90% Remote

Project overview

A transmission system operator in the energy industry, based in Berlin, is expanding its high-voltage grid for the energy transition and connecting offshore wind farms in the Baltic Sea to the transmission grid.

For two HVDC grid connection projects (offshore wind connection and energy island connection in the Baltic Sea), we are looking for an experienced Package Manager for onshore cable installation. You will technically advise, coordinate, and monitor the onshore installation campaign of the cable supplier within the scope of an EPCI contract. The work is divided equally between both projects.

Responsibilities

• Creation of technical assessments, analyses, and documentation for the planning and execution of the onshore cable installation
• Development and documentation of installation concepts, interface requirements, and implementation approaches for the onshore cable installation
• Technical coordination of project interfaces between the onshore cable installation scope and adjacent work packages
• Technical coordination and clarification of engineering, execution, schedule, and interface issues with the cable supplier and other involved contractors
• Analysis and documentation of technical and interface-related risks as well as possible countermeasures
• Creation of project-specific status reports and progress assessments for the relevant stakeholders
• Review, assessment, and documentation of technical deliverables, engineering documents, installation procedures, and method statements
• Development of technical recommendations and decision proposals for cable installation activities and interfaces
• Analysis and documentation of schedule impacts, dependencies, and boundary conditions for the onshore cable installation scope
• Documentation of quality-relevant observations, technical findings, and interface issues during execution
• Creation and review of technical specifications, tender documents, and contractor deliverables
• Documentation of compliance with project requirements, technical standards, permit conditions, and contractual obligations
• Evaluation of lessons learned, technical findings, and optimization potentials
• Identification of deviations, risks, and necessary corrective actions with corresponding recommendations to the client
