• Senior leadership role reporting to the General Manager

The Opportunity

We are looking for an experienced maintenance and asset management leader to join a site leadership team within our Australian operations.

Reporting to the General Manager, you will be the technical and operational authority for maintenance on site, ensuring the process plant, paste plant, and fixed and mobile assets are maintained to a standard that sustains safe, reliable and cost-effective gold production.

You will lead the full maintenance value chain (delivery, planning and scheduling, and reliability engineering) across an open pit or underground operation, translating the site's asset management strategy into disciplined, well-planned maintenance work, and driving continuous improvement in equipment performance and whole-of-life asset cost.

Why You'll Love Working for Us

• Senior leadership role with genuine influence over site performance
• Competitive remuneration, site allowance and bonuses

What You'll Do

• Lead a team responsible for Delivery, Plan & Schedule and Reliability.
• Deliver preventative, corrective and condition-based maintenance across fixed plant, mobile equipment, OT, instrumentation and comms, and site support infrastructure.
• Plan and deliver shutdowns safely, to scope and to schedule.
• Ensure statutory inspections (such as pressure vessels, lifting equipment and electrical installations) are completed on time.
• Own work management in SAP S/4HANA, the maintenance budget and maintenance demand forecasting.
• Own the material risks and critical controls allocated to the maintenance function.
• Drive defect elimination and reliability improvement, and develop maintenance strategies and tactics that balance cost, risk and performance.
• Direct and verify contractor performance against work packs, scope and site standards where maintenance is contractor-delivered.
• Ensure maintenance personnel have the technical skills and competencies to safely maintain the asset base.

What You'll Bring

• Tertiary qualification in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, or a recognised trade and professional pathway
• 8 to 12 years' experience in maintenance or asset management, including 3 to 5 years in a leadership role
• Experience across fixed plant and mobile equipment in open pit or underground environments
• Demonstrated experience in shutdown delivery, reliability engineering and defect elimination
• Experience managing maintenance contractors and statutory compliance
• Working knowledge of SAP (S/4HANA desirable) and ISO 55000 asset management principles
• Strong leadership skills and demonstrated ability to support a multidisciplinary team
• Valid C Class Western Australian Driver's Licence (or the ability to obtain one)
