• Coordinate remotely with onshore engineers, senior drafters, and project leads to meet agreed deliverables and deadlines.

• Support the delivery of simple to moderately complex drawing packages as part of a distributed, offshore project team.

We know today's complex challenges can only be solved through bringing together diverse teams of people from across our business, so there will be opportunities for you to apply your skills and creativity to projects in other geographies and markets.

What can you bring to the team
