Job description

Location: Aberdeen (Hybrid working)

Experience: Principal Installation Engineer | SURF experience essential


Atlas NextWave is supporting a confidential client that is delivering large‑scale, complex offshore installation projects, with an increasing emphasis on early‑phase engineering and constructability.


This is a role for an installation expert who wants more than execution — someone who wants to influence strategy, methods, and outcomes.


The Opportunity

You’ll act as a technical authority across:

  • Installation engineering for SURF scopes
  • Feasibility and early installation studies
  • Method statements, rigging design, lift analysis and offshore procedures
  • Risk management, HAZIDs/HAZOPs and constructability reviews
  • Tender support and early engagement shaping winning solutions


Your experience will directly influence how projects are installed, not just how they look on paper.


Who This Suits

This opportunity will resonate if you:

  • Are already working as a Principal or Senior Installation Engineer
  • Have strong SURF installation experience
  • Are confident operating in front‑end and feasibility phases
  • Enjoy mentoring others while remaining technically hands‑on
  • Want your engineering judgement to carry weight


Why This Role Stands Out

  • Senior engineers have a real voice in delivery decisions
  • Early involvement in meaningful, complex offshore projects
  • Exposure to a wide variety of installation challenges
  • Hybrid working that supports focus and collaboration
  • A culture built on trust, accountability and engineering excellence


Alongside a great package, the role offers the pace and challenge of major projects, complemented by access to in‑house fitness and wellness facilities and regular social events that mark success without excess.


Why Engage with Atlas NextWave?

We work discreetly with senior engineers who are selective about their next step.


If you’re open to a confidential discussion about how this role compares to where you are now — technically, professionally and culturally — we’ll give you a clear, honest view.
