Job Description

The Technical Superintendent is responsible for the technical integrity, maintenance delivery and engineering assurance of assigned vessels, ensuring vessels remain safe, compliant, reliable and ‘In Class’, while supporting the Vessel Manager as the asset owner to deliver contracted performance and commercial outcomes. Operating within the North Star Integrated Management System (IMS), the role drives technical availability and reliability, reducing unplanned downtime/off-hire exposure through disciplined maintenance governance, defect elimination and robust technical reporting. For SOV/CSOV assets, the role provides technical authority for mission-critical systems (e.g., DP/power management and walk-to-work systems) and, where applicable, supports commissioning/acceptance readiness for newbuilds, conversions or major upgrades.

Job Responsibility

  • Maintain continuous oversight of vessel material condition, technical risk and certification status, ensuring vessels remain safe, compliant, In Class and audit-ready at all times
  • Plan, coordinate and close out statutory, Class and Flag surveys, including Conditions of Class, with robust evidence and on-time completion
  • Ensure technical records and close-outs meet IMS expectations and stand up to audit scrutiny
  • Own PMS/defect governance quality: defects are assessed, prioritised, actioned and closed with supporting evidence and system discipline
  • Monitor machinery performance and repeat failures
  • drive Root Cause Analysis (RCA), defect elimination and reliability improvements to protect availability and reduce unplanned downtime/off-hire exposure
  • Provide clear technical direction to Masters and Chief Engineers on maintenance standards, breakdown response and escalation thresholds
  • Act as subject matter expert for mission-critical systems (DP/station-keeping, diesel-electric/power management, walk-to-work/gangway systems, hotel/POB critical systems, and transfer craft where fitted)
  • Ensure operational readiness through disciplined maintenance, vendor governance and performance trending to protect safety and charter compliance
  • Lead technical readiness for mobilisations/conversions/upgrades, including acceptance planning, punch-list control and commissioning evidence where applicable
  • Develop and deliver (with Vessel Manager approval) annual maintenance plans, docking specifications and rolling lifecycle/CAPEX plans based on condition, risk, surveys and obsolescence
  • Plan and technically manage emergency repairs/docking/major interventions, ensuring Class/Flag integration, variation control, cost control and safe execution
  • Ensure redelivery is supported by testing/commissioning records, Class acceptance, clear residual risk statements and full close-out (including lessons learned)
  • Provide bottom-up vessel technical budget inputs and rolling forecasts based on real condition, defect maturity, survey windows and planned work
  • Monitor and control technical spend against approved OPEX/CAPEX, escalating material variance early and maintaining a clear audit trail through requisition/PO/invoice discipline
  • Ensure costs, work orders and defects are linked in the authoritative system to preserve financial and technical traceability
  • Act as the shore-based technical authority for assigned vessels, coaching and challenging shipboard engineering teams to sustain consistent standards
  • Coordinate effectively with Operations, QHSSE, Crewing, Finance, Procurement, Projects, Class/Flag, OEMs and contractors to deliver controlled outcomes
  • Provide calm technical leadership during breakdowns/casualties, ensuring containment, documentation, escalation and learning (RCA and preventive actions)

Requirements

  • Degree in Marine/Mechanical/Electrical Engineering or Chief Engineer CoC / STCW management level (or equivalent shore‑based competence)
  • Proven track record delivering class/statutory compliance, dry dockings/major repairs, defect control and maintenance assurance in an offshore vessel environment
  • Demonstrable capability in technical budget control/forecasting and disciplined use of PMS/ERP systems for evidence-led reporting

Nice to have

  • SOV/CSOV experience including DP and diesel-electric/power management and/or walk-to-work access systems
  • Commissioning/acceptance exposure (FAT/SAT/sea trials/handover) for newbuilds, conversions or major upgrades
  • Strong competence in vendor management and performance improvement/learning transfer across vessels/fleet
