Project Civil Engineer

The Port of Barcelona's Muelle Sur Container Terminal is 100% owned by APM Terminals and has an annual throughput capacity of 1,560,000 TEU. APM Terminals is committed to major investments in further upgrading terminal infrastructure and container handling equipment over the coming years to enable the terminal to handle the largest container ships in service.
APM Terminals Project Execution has, in agreement with APM Terminals Barcelona, recently commenced the ramp-up of the corresponding, multi-year project with the main focus on the civil & electrical engineering deliverables (quay wall, land side rail beam and furniture upgrades). The main challenge of this project resides in the need to undertake simultaneous operations i.e. multi-shift, marine and land construction works in between and around 24/7 operational berths, within a very busy port area (incl. cruise terminals proximity).
The Project Civil Engineer is an important role in planning, directing and controlling the delivery of civil engineering works. Its objective is to support the Civil Package Manager and closely collaborate with various internal and external stakeholders so that the necessary planning, design, engineering and construction are executed according to the project's scope, schedule, quality and budget.
Principal Accountabilities and Responsibilities: General Monitor civil site works and control progress (the contractor remains responsible for delivery).
Influence internal and external decision making processes on the civil aspects of the project and cross-functionally advise the Interface-, HSSE-, Equipment-, and IT Managers.

Implement APMT project controls/procedures to manage the construction in a forward-looking manner.
Track construction progress against the approved baseline and, where appropriate, ensure issues are pro-actively addressed, resolved and/or escalated, and reported.
Analyse project schedule, assess delays and suggest pro-active or corrective measures.
Assess project changes and their impacts, and manage them in line with company procedures.
Monitor and assess civil opportunities, risks and subsequent mitigation strategies, and track such risks through input into the project risk register.
Provide direction and support where needed to the Engineer on site (who will be managing the Contractor's contractual responsibilities), responding to Requests for Information related to Employer's requirements and associate scope of work in a timely manner.
Controls & governance Implement and uphold APM Terminals' standards and best practices in project execution, including proactive risk, cost, change and schedule management related to the Civil package.
Ensure adhesion to all Spanish civil engineering design and construction standards.
Communications Ensure clear and constant communication is maintained within the project and terminal teams in relation to civil matters.
