We are looking for an experienced Project Manager Lead to support and strengthen our Metocean projects and project management community. In this role, you will work closely with Project Managers, technical experts, and operational teams to ensure Metocean projects are well planned, well resourced, and delivered with high quality. You will not be expected to run every project yourself, but to provide oversight, guidance, and support Project Managers in navigating complexity related to weather, marine operations, modelling, data delivery, and client requirements. The role combines people leadership, portfolio oversight, and continuous improvement. Metocean projects often carry significant cost and risk exposure, particularly due to lump sum delivery models, vessel chartering, and strong weather dependency. A key aspect of the role is therefore to promote thorough upfront planning and operational readiness, including anticipating and mitigating risks related to spare parts, documentation, permits, logistics, resourcing, and technical configuration ahead of offshore execution.
Job Responsibility:
Provide a consolidated, risk‑focused overview of project delivery across the portfolio and escalate matters requiring leadership support
Enable early warning, prioritisation, and predictable client delivery through clear and timely reporting
Report on project financial status, including budget, forecast, and WIP
Monitor delivery performance, QHSE matters, and technical or data‑related risks that may impact quality or contractual compliance
Lead and support the Metocean Project Management team, fostering a collaborative and supportive working environment
Maintain an overview of project resourcing and workload, ensuring the right capabilities are assigned at the right time
Act as a sounding board for Project Managers on delivery strategy, planning, and risk management related to Metocean projects and offshore operations
Requirements:
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in engineering, oceanography, meteorology, geoscience, or a related discipline
Several years of experience as a Project Manager, preferably within Metocean, oceanography, offshore energy, renewables, or related marine disciplines
Proven experience supporting or leading Project Managers, project teams, or technical professionals
Strong understanding of project risk, delivery models, and performance follow‑up
Fluent in both Norwegian and English, written and spoken
Nice to have:
Familiarity with Metocean data, instrumentation, modelling, or studies
Project management certification (PMP, PRINCE2, or similar)
What we offer:
International working environment
Flexible working hours
Subsidised canteen
On‑site parking
In‑house exercise room
Covered mobile phone and internet expenses
Secure bike parking and wardrobe/shower facilities
