New Construction Surveyor – Lloyd's Register
Join to apply for the New Construction Surveyor role at Lloyd's Register .
Lloyd's Register (LR) has been appointed as the classification society for Australia's Hunter Class Frigate Program, the largest surface ship project in the nation's defense history. Through Hunter, BAE Systems Australia's shipbuilding business, ASC Shipbuilding, will deliver nine anti‑submarine warfare frigates, known as the Hunter class, to the Royal Australian Navy.
ASC Shipbuilding recently awarded LR the contract to provide tailored Naval Classification and Certification Services for the Hunter program's prototyping phase, which is on track to cut steel in December. Naval Classification and Certification Services will be delivered by the LR Australia team, who will ensure that the Hunter program meets Naval Classification and Certification requirements. The team will be co‑located with ASC Shipbuilding employees at the state‑of‑the‑art shipyard at Osborne, in South Australia.
As a result, LR is looking to expand its new building naval team with the addition of a hull surveyor. We are seeking a seasoned professional with new‑building experience to join our site‑based team at Osborne (Adelaide) and provide hull construction survey oversight. The ideal candidate will play a key role in LR's team and contribute to the project overall.
