The Civil / Structural Asset Management Engineer will be part of the asset team and will contribute to the creation, management and continuous improvement of multi-year maintenance plans for civil structures and building assets within an industrial environment in Hoboken.
The focus is on renovating industrial structures and capturing, structuring and converting operational complaints and opportunities into concrete improvement proposals. Examples include corrosion issues in steel structures, cracks in walls, renovation of rooms and smaller civil or building interventions.
• Project objectives: increase structural reliability, reduce safety and compliance risks, and create predictable lifecycle costs for civil and building assets.
• Scope: tactical asset planning, civil and structural reliability, inspections, degradation analysis, lifecycle engineering, small improvement projects and maintenance strategy input.
• Context: the role operates in an industrial PMR environment where structural integrity, safety and compliance are central priorities.
• Key stakeholders: AM engineers, work coordinators, inspectors, contractors, condition-monitoring partners, design departments, production departments and operational teams.
• Business drivers: renovation needs, evolving legislation, asset reliability, lifecycle-cost control, risk reduction and continuous improvement.
Core Responsibilities
• Set up tactical plans for the structural reliability, safety and lifetime of civil and building assets.
• Create, manage and improve multi-year maintenance plans for civil structures and building assets.
• Capture, structure and analyse complaints, asset issues and operational opportunities from the production environment.
• Translate identified risks and opportunities into concrete maintenance strategies, improvement actions and project proposals.
• Define and follow up relevant performance indicators for civil and structural asset management.
Continuous Improvement and Risk Analysis
• Investigate degradation, deficiencies and incidents to control and reduce structural risks.
• Perform root cause analyses for structural deficiencies and recurring technical issues.
• Interpret inspection and RBI data, including trends, degradation curves and remaining-life assessments.
• Formulate mitigation and preventive measures and translate them into maintenance strategies.
• Use criticality and risk-analysis methods to prioritize asset interventions and lifecycle measures.
Small Improvement Projects
• Convert defined measures into practical civil and structural improvement actions.
• Define scope, risks, planning and budget for small-scale civil and building interventions.
• Coordinate and guide contractors and condition-monitoring partners during engineering and execution phases.
• Provide technical direction, quality control and documentation follow-up for assigned interventions.
• Prepare project-scope documents and CAPEX/OPEX proposals where required.
Asset Design and Lifecycle Engineering
• Ensure civil and building assets are designed to be inspectable, maintainable and reliable from the design phase onward.
• Advise design departments on parameters with lifecycle impact for structural assets.
• Validate designs and as-built documentation against structural, reliability and maintainability criteria.
• Prepare and support technical acceptance criteria, validation checklists and handover conditions.
• Ensure the Engineer creates clear plans and technical input that can activate the work coordinator for preparation and execution.
Stakeholder and Compliance Management
• Align with relevant internal and external stakeholders to clarify requirements, risks and execution constraints.
• Ensure compliance with relevant standards and regulations, including ISO 55000, SEVESO and Eurocode requirements where applicable.
• Safeguard correct use and quality of asset data in EAM and DMS systems.
• Maintain asset files, inspection history and maintenance plans in line with internal procedures.
• Produce deliverables such as criticality and risk analyses, validation checklists, inspection reports, RCA reports, technical measures lists and project-scope documents.
