Role & responsibilities

The Engineering Manager Capital Projects is responsible for leading the planning, design, execution, and delivery of capital investment (CapEx) projects across manufacturing and supply chain infrastructure. This role drives plant expansion, modernization, and process optimization initiatives, ensuring projects are completed safely, on time, and within budget.

The position will oversee engineering design and construction of facilities such as powder blending plants, liquid chemical processing units, automated packaging systems, and bulk raw material storage infrastructure. The incumbent will ensure all investments enhance production capacity, improve cost efficiency, and comply with strict environmental, health, and safety standards.

Key Responsibilities

1. Industrial Design & Process Engineering

• Act as engineering lead for all CCBU Brownfield / Greenfield project.
• Lead engineering design for dry powder blending systems, liquid processing units, and chemical storage infrastructure.
• Drive process optimization through automation solutions, including dosing systems, batch mixing, and high-speed packaging lines.
• Integrate utilities and support systems such as piping networks, dust collection, ventilation, and emission control systems.
• Scale up chemical processes from pilot to commercial production while ensuring process safety and quality consistency.
• Experience working on projects within Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous (classified) areas, with thorough understanding of applicable safety, design, and regulatory requirements.

2. Regulatory Compliance & EHS

• Ensure compliance with applicable environmental, health, and safety regulations (e.g., hazardous chemicals, dust explosion prevention, emissions control).
• Support permitting processes for environmental clearances, statutory approvals, and operational licenses.
• Drive a zero-incident safety culture across all project phases.
