Interface Manager

Worley, a global force in energy, chemicals and resources, is looking for an Interface Manager to lead coordination on a major oil and gas project based in Abu Dhabi. The company has a long track record delivering engineering, procurement and construction services across the asset life cycle, and this posting fits within a portfolio that blends home-office interface work with on-site execution. This opportunity suits a senior professional who thrives on orchestrating complex interfaces across multiple packages and stakeholders.

The Interface Manager acts as the principal point of contact for internal teams and external partners, ensuring alignment across project interfaces and avoiding schedule bottlenecks. The role blends engineering coordination from the home office with on-site activity, requiring clear communication with EPC contractors and end users, and it includes regular reporting to the Process/Commissioning Manager. It’s a chance to shape how different domains come together to meet tight milestones on a large-scale program.

The posting date for this opportunity is October 2, 2026, and the unposting date is November 1, 2026. The role is located at ARE-AD-Abu Dhabi City and is a full-time, on-site position. The role reports to a Senior Project Control Specialist within the organization.

Coordinating interfaces across a complex project

In this role you’ll manage both internal interfaces and external collaborations among EPC contractors, end users and other stakeholders, driving regular interface meetings and timely coordination of operations, material handling and turnaround activities. You will keep the Process/Commissioning Manager informed with weekly and monthly progress notes, and you’ll oversee battery limit tie-ins and related scopes to keep the schedule on track.

You’ll also oversee the data environment for interfaces, including maintaining interface point registers and the IP databases, so pre-commissioning and commissioning procedures have a solid foundation. Participation in project reviews, including HAZOPs for interface points, and close coordination with operations, maintenance and integrity teams, will help ensure interfaces with existing facilities are properly managed and any shortfalls are flagged early.

What you need to bring

• A four-year bachelor’s degree in engineering
• Proficient written and spoken English
• A proven track record on brownfield and greenfield projects

Experience that counts

• More than twenty years of relevant experience in the oil, gas or petrochemical industries
• At least five years in a similar position on international oil and gas or petrochemical projects
• Experience coordinating multiple packages across FEED and EPC phases
• Experience on ADNOC projects with five or more years in that context
• Mandatory offshore and brownfield project exposure
• Background in project execution and familiarity with engineering standards is desirable
• Ability to foster teamwork within a diverse, multinational workforce
• Strong time management with a proven ability to meet deadlines
• Solid analytical and problem-solving skills

Working life and logistics

This is a full-time, on-site position based in ARE-AD-Abu Dhabi City, reporting to a Senior Project Control Specialist. Worley values a values-inspired culture that supports belonging, connection and innovation, and this role is part of that effort on a large-scale project that demands collaboration across disciplines and geographies.

Tips to shine in this interface move

Put your engineering degree and the most relevant experience right at the top of your resume, so hiring managers see you meet the must-haves immediately.

When you describe your experience, call out concrete examples of brownfield and greenfield projects you managed and any interface responsibilities you held, especially coordinating with EPC contractors and internal teams.

Be prepared to discuss your ADNOC project work and offshore/brownfield challenges, including how you established interface point registers and ran interface meetings to keep the project on track.

Ask about how they structure interface governance, the cadence of interface meetings, and the metrics used to track interface performance and tie-ins with existing facilities.
