Senior Naval Architect
This job is brought to you by Jobs/Redefined, the UK's leading over-50s age inclusive jobs board.
Malin Abram have an exciting opportunity for a Senior Naval Architect to join our team in Glasgow and support on some of the most exciting Heavy Lift projects in Scotland and beyond.
We are looking for an experienced Senior Naval Architect to work on diverse projects ranging from load-out of frigates to shipping critical cargo for some of the largest construction projects on the planet. Engineers who are just as comfortable in the office solving the technical issues as being on site, rolling up their sleeves and getting the job done.
Malin Abram have been involved in heavy lift for years and were one of the early innovators in the field in Scotland. The company transferred project management experience delivering ships, going back as far as 1899, into a unique heavy lift shipping service in the 1980's. From this, the company has grown into a diverse Group revolving round the marine industry and are now recognised as one of the most comprehensive providers of end-to-end marine solutions in the world.
Malin have recently taken joint ownership of the CD01 Semi-Submersible barge which will be based on the Clyde. This will offer domestic capability not seen in Scotland for decades. A key element of this role will be supporting the enquiries and projects involving our barge and ensuring the successful delivery of these scopes. Key elements of these projects will include load out engineering, float off engineering, mooring analysis, structural checks and seafastening design amongst others.
Hours and pay are competitive with similar companies in the area and we are always improving our HR policies based on feedback from the staff. We operate a flexible working system including a working from home system which allows a mixture of office and home working. You will find your future co-workers an interesting bunch and from varied backgrounds ranging from university graduates and ex-merchant mariners to quantity surveyors and lawyers. Malin Abram encourage all staff to continually improve themselves and are supportive of professional development.
Malin Abram are based at the iconic South Rotunda building on the South bank of the River Clyde (just at the squinty bridge). There are numerous gyms and other facilities in the area and the upcoming (some say already arrived) area of Finnieston is a 15 minute walk where there are any number of bars and restaurants. Glasgow itself is a vibrant and welcoming city with character, personality and great experiences. Named the UK's top cultural and creative city in 2019 by the European Commission and in Time Out's top 10 best cities in the world 2019 it is a great place to live and work.
Application is through the Bamboo portal. The recruitment process will involve a preliminary interview and a more detailed follow-up interview as well as an opportunity to meet some of your future teammates.
Malin Abram is an equal opportunity employer and value diversity. We welcome candidates from all backgrounds and characteristics covered under the Equality Act to ensure a strong team demographic. It should be noted however, that we are only inviting applicants with UK/EU nationalities due to security requirements on some of our projects and international travel requirements for site work.
