Poste :

Project implementation is a key value driver in APM Terminals. Our ability to build a terminal, establish an operational organisation and secure commercial business delivers real NPV to APMT. If we fail to deliver it hurts APMT long term and equally, if we are able to improve on the original plans for a project we can secure incremental value for APMT.

APMT are looking for an individual to lead the project controls discipline for the TM2-2 project. Key to success in this role is centred around transparently communicating the project’s status to the Project and broader business to support the successful delivery of project success criteria and delivery of project benefits back to the business.

Managing the project using both leading and lagging indicators will be key to successful performance management of the project team, suppliers and contractors – this is heavily reliant on success of project controls. Further to this, setting up and maintaining all project control systems, tools and reports is essential.

- within the project and team,
- to Project Manager, Technical Lead and other relevant leads.
- to Program Lead and PMO, and
- to other corporate counterparts (as required),
- including both leading and lagging indicators of project performance
• Act as primary point of contact for all project control systems (mainly PMWeb) and be responsible for the user rights administration.
• Liaise with the functional counterpart on project control system issues and improvements

Construction controls & governance

• Implement APMT project controls and project procedures to manage the construction and delivery of equipment and project IT in a forward-looking manner.
• Track project progress against the approved baselines and, where appropriate, ensure issues are pro-actively addressed, resolved and/or escalated and reported.
Communications
• Ensure clear and consistent reporting within and from the project team.
• Regularly meet with the construction, equipment and IT teams to maintain awareness of (potential) project control issues.
• Build working relations with counterparts at the head office, consultants, contractors and suppliers.
Interfaces

• Liaise with the APMT global departments to ensure consistency with company standards.
• Provide feedback to the Project Execution team.
