Wolviston Management Services is proud to be working in partnership with Tioxide to recruit a Process Automation Engineer for their Greatham site.
This is a specialist engineering role where you will support the design, assessment and implementation of process control changes across site DCS and PLC systems. You will work with technical teams, project teams and third-party software developers to support capital projects, technical improvement programmes and the transition away from obsolete control systems.
You will play a key part in developing control sequences, supporting FEED studies, testing software changes and ensuring control system modifications are robust, documented and approved before going live.
What you’ll be doing
You will:
Provide technical expertise and assessment for proposed DCS and PLC process control changes.
Develop process control and automation design scope documentation for FEED studies.
Support third-party software developers as part of control system improvement and transition projects.
Carry out Factory Acceptance Testing and on-site commissioning of software and process control functions.
Develop new and existing process control sequences and alarms in line with user specifications.
Ensure control system changes are tested, documented and approved in line with site standards.
Support implementation of the control system improvement plan.
Provide breakdown support to control system users, including out-of-hours support when required.
Work collaboratively with site technical, engineering and project teams.
Promote a positive, values-led culture focused on safety, compliance and high performance.
Candidate requirements
We welcome applications from people who have:
A degree, or equivalent knowledge, in engineering, advanced process control or a related discipline.
Experience working in a control system environment, ideally within chemical, process, manufacturing or another 24/7 industrial setting.
DCS programming experience and exposure to PLC control protocols.
Experience supporting control system changes, testing, commissioning or automation improvement projects.
The ability to work collaboratively across technical, engineering and project teams.
A strong focus on standards, compliance and safe delivery.
Experience with MOD300 DCS and/or DeltaV systems would be beneficial.
A commitment to safe working, inclusion, continuous improvement and values-led behaviours.
We know people gain skills in different ways. You do not need to meet every point above to apply. If this role interests you and you believe you could make a positive contribution, we would welcome your application.
Why join Tioxide?
Join Tioxide in a specialist automation role where your control systems expertise will directly support site reliability, safety and future technology development. You will work on meaningful process control improvements in a complex manufacturing environment.
