WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
Are you a hands\-on, entrepreneurial and resilient person? Someone who naturally takes ownership of planning, budget, safety and delivery, is comfortable leading welders and local crews on site? Do you stay calm and solution\-focused under pressure while projects are running at full speed?
The ideal person enjoys spending weeks abroad, adapts quickly to different cultures, and can be both firm and respectful when dealing with clients and local teams. Strong communication skills, clear decision\-making and the ability to handle conflict without damaging relationships are essential, as is a genuine drive to deliver high\-quality technical work in challenging international environments.
WHAT WILL YOU DO?
As an International Site Manager, you are responsible for the assembly and delivery of large technical installations at customer sites around the globe.

Your responsibilities include:
- Take end‑to‑end responsibility on the client’s site for the mechanical assembly and completion of large industrial installations.

- Act as the day‑to‑day point of contact for the client’s site management, aligning on planning, interfaces and expectations.
- Work closely with the Project Department Manager and site coordinators on project planning, staffing, equipment and quality resources.
- Monitor project budget and schedule on site and make sure available people and equipment are used efficiently.
- Acting as the main point of contact for the client and liaising with the project management team.
- Ensuring smooth and safe operations on every project site.

- Willingness and ability to work long days during project phases and to perform under time pressure when needed.
- A pragmatic, hands‑on leadership style: you are visible on site, solution‑oriented and clear in your instructions.
