Job Id :1000504553


Description

Position Summary
The Site Engineer will be responsible for the day-to-day execution, management, and supervision of potable water pipeline construction activities. The successful candidate must demonstrate the ability to operate independently on-site, managing field resources, tracking daily progress, and overcoming construction challenges with minimal supervision. This role requires seamless communication and reporting to the Project Manager to ensure project deliverables are achieved safely, on schedule, within scope, and in strict compliance with engineering specifications.
Key Responsibilities
Site Management & Execution
• Supervise and drive the daily construction activities of potable water pipeline installations, including excavation, pipe laying, jointing, thrust block construction, backfilling, and compaction.
• Manage onsite sub-contractors, laborers, plant machinery, and material resources individually to ensure efficient field workflows.
• Conduct field inspections to verify that all work aligns with approved engineering drawings, method statements, and structural parameters.
• Direct pressure testing, hydrotesting, flushing, and disinfection protocols for newly laid potable water pipelines before commissioning.
Reporting & Project Coordination
• Coordinate closely with the Project Manager to track project timelines, resource allocations, and budget milestones.
• Generate and submit precise daily, weekly, and monthly site progress reports, documenting work completed, delays, equipment utilization, and labor hours.
• Act as the primary onsite point of contact, resolving field issues independently while escalating complex variations or delays to the Project Manager immediately.
• Liaise with client representatives, consultants, and local authorities during routine site inspections and quality sign-offs.
Quality Assurance & Safety Compliance
• Maintain strict quality control metrics over all incoming pipeline materials, ensuring proper handling and storage of pipes, valves, and fittings.
• Implement and enforce all company Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) policies onsite, targeting zero incidents.
• Ensure accurate site surveying, alignment verification, and the preservation of levels as dictated by the design specifications.
Requirements & Qualifications
Experience & Education
• Minimum Experience: 5+ years of verified site engineering experience dedicated to pipeline infrastructure works, specifically focused on potable water transmission and distribution networks.
• Education: Bachelor’s Degree or Diploma in Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a closely related construction discipline.
• Technical Knowledge: Deep familiarity with water pipeline materials (such as DI, HDPE, PVC, and Carbon Steel), jointing techniques, valve chambers, testing mechanisms, and standard utility standards.
Key Competencies
• Autonomy: Proven ability to manage a construction site individually, handle rapid decision-making under pressure, and drive productivity independently.
• Software Proficiency: Basic proficiency in AutoCAD for checking layout designs and MS Office (Excel, Word) for administrative reporting.
• Communication: Strong interpersonal and report-writing skills to build working relationships across sub-contractors and project executives.
Preferred Assets (Added Advantage)
• Driving License: Possession of a valid, active driving license is highly preferred and considered a significant advantage for field mobility across site segments.
