Introduction
Do you want to build and improve an operation rather than simply maintain what already exists? In this role as Operations Manager, you will have the opportunity to make a real impact on how projects are executed, from adding structure to improving performance across multiple vessels.
You will work closely with commercial, technical, and operational teams, ensuring that everything that is sold is delivered safely, efficiently, and to a high standard. You will also be given the space to further develop this role and grow into a position with broader operational responsibility.
What will you do?
As an Operations Manager, you are responsible for ensuring the optimal performance of two DP2 Fallpipe Vessels. You combine involvement in day-to-day operations with continuously improving and structuring the organization.
You maintain oversight across multiple projects and vessels simultaneously, ensuring performance is not only stable but continuously improving. You focus not just on daily operations, but also on identifying patterns: where time is lost, where improvements can be made, and how to structurally optimize performance.
Your responsibilities include:
- Managing and improving the operational performance of the vessels
- Maximizing uptime, productivity, and quality
- Monitoring KPIs and implementing structural improvements
- Translating client requirements into practical and feasible execution plans
You also play a key role in bridging the gap between commercial agreements and operational execution. You contribute during the tender phase and are confident in challenging feasibility to ensure that what is sold can actually be delivered.
Internally, you lead the operational team, including superintendents, ensuring clear structure, defined responsibilities, and strong collaboration. At the same time, you drive the further professionalization of the organization by improving and standardizing processes and ways of working.
Safety, quality, and compliance are central to everything you do. You have the mandate to make decisions and intervene where necessary.
What do you bring?
We are looking for someone who understands operations and is ready for the next step. You may have experience as a Works Manager, Senior Project Manager, or in a similar role, and are comfortable overseeing projects and teams.
You can easily switch between detail and helicopter view, knowing when to dive in and when to step back. You are decisive, communicatively strong, and not afraid to challenge, including towards commercial stakeholders when needed.
We are looking for someone who:
- Takes ownership and responsibility
- Brings structure where it is currently lacking
- Is driven to improve and professionalize
- Has the ambition to grow into a broader operational leadership role
You don’t need to have done everything already, but you do have the drive and capability to take ownership of this role and make it your own.
What do we offer you?
You will step into a role with significant responsibility and influence. You will work in a dynamic offshore environment and have a direct impact on how the organization operates and evolves.
You can expect:
- A salary of up to €9,000 gross per month, depending on experience
- A key position within the operation
- Plenty of room to build, improve, and structure
- A dynamic working environment with international offshore projects
- Growth opportunities towards broader operational responsibility
