RWE Offshore Wind GmbH To start as soon as possible, full time, fixed term
Every offshore wind project starts with a simple question: What is the best way to install it?
For our offshore wind project in Japan, we are looking for a Senior Logistics Manager who will help answer that question by coordinating the development of project-specific Transport & Installation (T&I) concepts and execution strategies.
A key focus of the role is bringing all T&I functions together to ensure the project becomes construction ready. You will develop and maintain a robust T&I concept, identify risks and dependencies, coordinate critical interfaces across project packages and ensure responsibilities are clearly defined and understood.
During execution, you will act as the focal point for the project-wide T&I concept, supporting the project in maintaining, challenging and optimising the agreed strategy where beneficial.
Ultimately, your role is to ensure that risks are understood, interfaces are managed effectively, package scopes fit together and the offshore wind farm can be delivered safely, efficiently and on schedule.
About the role
- Develop and coordinate project-specific Transport & Installation (T&I) concepts, execution strategies, and delivery programmes, while maintaining and optimising integrated construction schedules.
- Coordinate T&I resources, specialists, and package teams throughout project development and execution.
- Identify and manage project risks, dependencies, constraints, opportunities, and mitigation measures to support successful delivery.
- Manage critical interfaces between packages, contractors, and stakeholders, ensuring effective coordination and communication.
- Ensure clear responsibilities, eliminate scope gaps between project packages, and support Package Managers in defining execution strategies, interface requirements, and contract deliverables.
- Support tender evaluations and contract negotiations where required.
- Lead planning, interface, and coordination meetings, providing reporting and recommendations to the Senior Project Manager, and support project readiness reviews and the transition into construction.
- Monitor execution against the agreed T&I concept, drive optimisation opportunities, and promote lessons learned and continuous improvement across projects.
