- Carry out surveillance and quality inspections on site, identifying any non-conformance's or deviations from agreed standards.
- Raise, document and track NCRs / quality observations, and follow up to confirm close-out.
- Use digital tools (e.g. tablet-based inspection / snagging apps) to log inspections, snags and observations.
- Liaise with the client team, yard / port personnel and contractors to make sure everyone is aligned on HSE, quality and schedule expectations.
- Provide clear daily and weekly updates to the client, including progress, key risks and any issues requiring attention.

- Ability to interpret technical documentation (e.g. welding procedures, coating systems, lifting and load-out procedures).
- Strong awareness of HSE requirements and safe systems of work in a construction or port / marine environment.
- Confident communicator who can interface with contractors, site teams and senior stakeholders.
- Based within a commutable distance of the Edinburgh area and willing to work full-time on site.
Desirable

- ICorr Coating Inspector Level 1 or 2.
- ISO 9001 Internal or Lead Auditor certification.
- Experience using digital inspection / snagging platforms.
- Background in handling or overseeing large offshore wind components (e.g. foundations, transition pieces, jackets, monopiles or similar).
We're keen to speak to people who are:
- Proactive and assertive when representing the client on site.
- Detail-focused, with a methodical approach to inspection and reporting.
- Calm under pressure, especially during heavy lifting or time-critical operations.
