  • Drive a culture of safety by ensuring full compliance with OH&S policies and environmental standards, conducting root-cause incident investigations, and executing safety campaigns to maintain a secure, high-standard working environment.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for the planning and execution of product commissioning and service delivery, ensuring all activities align with commercial agreements and project timelines.
  • Oversee the Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) to ensure optimal stock levels, manage component and warranty lifecycles, and validate long-term spare parts planning to support both proactive and reactive maintenance.
  • Lead technical troubleshooting and maintenance strategy optimization to maximize machine uptime and meet contractual performance metrics, including availability, MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures), and MTTR (Mean Time to Repair).
  • Manage employee performance and competency mapping, coordinate annual staff training programs, and monitor contract data to provide regular reporting on service levels and operational feedback to divisional leadership.
