Gardline are recruiting a Project Manager

April 26, 2021

Gardline is a leading provider of marine surveys, with a vibrant Environmental Division that has evolved over 30 years, providing the highest quality scientific services to the international marine industry.

Job Description

The Environmental Department at Gardline are recruiting a Project Manager to support the delivery of an expanding portfolio of services. Our team ultimately aims to minimise the impact of offshore operations on the marine environment and to support clients in meeting their regulatory obligations and achieving best-practice.

We are looking for enthusiastic individuals with a passion for the marine environment and the wildlife that it supports. The ideal candidate will have a degree in a marine environmental science related subject as well as experience in the field of marine mammals, environmental sampling or underwater acoustics. Previous offshore experience in an environmental role would be hugely advantageous.

The successful candidate will be accountable for managing offshore projects in relation to environmental baseline and habitat surveys, acoustic surveys and marine mammal mitigation projects across the Gardline fleet of vessels, within the Boskalis group and also to additional external clients, providing a wide range of project experience and development opportunities.

The role will involve ensuring that the technical, financial, contractual, quality, HSE and other obligations are met in accordance with both company and client standards for the duration of the project lifecycle. In addition, successful candidates will be key members of the team responsible for the marketing, development and growth of Gardline’s Environmental portfolio of services.

Job Requirements

The successful candidate will need to demonstrate the ability to liaise and build relationships with internal and external clients and stakeholders. This will include client visits and presentations, as well as the assessment, preparation and submission of tenders.

We are looking for positive and passionate individuals that have a capability to build strong interpersonal relationships and successfully manage commercial activities but also add value to our organisation through their own thoughts and ideas. You will be a proactive and confident ambassador for supporting the department’s strategic objectives.

The Project Manager will also be expected to hold a full (clean) UK driving license and be proficient in MS office, in particular excel, word and outlook. The nature of this project-supporting, client-facing role will mean that you will be expected to respond occasionally to requests outside of standard business hours. Additionally, UK and overseas travel will be essential in this role in support of client relationship and project start up activities.

Gardline welcomes applicants for a full time Project Management role. The selected applicant would initially start work remotely but should be willing to relocate to, or be currently based, within commuting distance of Gardline’s Great Yarmouth offices.
