**ABOUT THE ROLE**:
We have an opening in our Australian office for a Capital Project Analyst. The role is one with potential to **_become a consultant and trusted advisor in your specialisation _**in Industry.

IPA’s client portfolio includes world-leading companies across both heavy industries—such as bulk chemical production, oil and gas extraction, and mining—and light industries, including specialty chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and consumer products. IPA has offices in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Australia, Brazil, and Singapore; as such, major industry leaders globally rely on us to assess the health of their capital project systems and provide recommendations to improve their performance. We examine cost, schedule, and asset quality, with a strong focus on risk management activities to drive project success.

IPA analysts must have excellent written and oral communication skills and display the interpersonal skills needed to develop and maintain relationships at senior levels with client companies. The position requires solid analytical skills and the ability to analyse and understand various levels of metrics in the assessment of overall project status.
