• Follow up sub-contractors.
• Create business cases for projects with promising technology and value to the company.
• Present cases to the department and senior management.
• Contribute to funding processes, identify possible mergers and acquisitions, and evaluate and apply for patents.
• Take initiative and collaborate with other departments such as Engineering and Senior Management.
• Travel to conferences and meetings as needed.    

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree within mechanical engineering, subsea, automation, cybernetics, electronics, marine, energy, industrial engineering or similar. 
• Subsea industry experience and/or technical understanding of ROVs.
• Relevant experience may compensate for formal education.
• Commercial mindset.

Personal Qualities

• Interest in technical topics and awareness of changes in the industry.
• Ability to come up with new ideas or improvements for the industry.
• Good communication skills.
• Self-motivated with the ability to work efficiently both independently and as part of a multi‑disciplinary team.
