Commissioning Managers - Energy from Waste

Commissioning Managers – Energy from Waste (EfW)

Multiple UK Locations

Kanadevia Inova is recruiting Commissioning Managers for several major Energy-from-Waste (EfW) projects across the UK.

These roles are open only to senior-level Commissioning Managers with proven experience acting as Overall or EPC Commissioning Manager on large-scale (>£500m) Waste-to-Energy plants using grate-firing technology.

Because these positions are responsible for the commissioning of complete EfW power plants, candidates must have hands-on commissioning experience within EfW EPC projects at whole-plant level. These are not package or subsystem roles — we are seeking professionals who have led the end-to-end commissioning of full EfW facilities in complex EPC environments.

The Role

As Commissioning Manager, you will lead the safe and structured commissioning of large EfW facilities from mechanical completion through to performance testing and handover.

• Lead the full EPC commissioning programme for EfW power plants

• Manage commissioning teams, contractors and OEMs across all systems

• Deliver plant start-up, testing, performance and handover to operations

• Ensure compliance with HSE, quality, contractual and regulatory requirements

• Report commissioning progress, risks and performance to project leadership

These duties and responsibilities are intended to describe the general nature of the role and are not an exhaustive list. Responsibilities may vary depending on project and business requirements.
