You'll be leading maintenance operations across geographically dispersed mine sites, supporting multiple clients and ensuring consistency across a diverse operational footprint.

You'll need to balance commercial outcomes, safety, equipment reliability and people leadership while remaining responsive to changing operational priorities.

  • Highly accountable
  • Commercially minded
