Plan it. Drive it. Keep the operation moving.
At Bis, we don't just move material — we keep some of Australia's biggest mining operations running. From logistics and haulage to maintenance and asset support, our teams are trusted to deliver safely, efficiently, and reliably every day.
We're now looking for an experienced Maintenance Planner to join our Karara operation in WA. This is a key site leadership support role where you'll take ownership of fixed plant maintenance planning, shutdown coordination, CMMS management, and preventative maintenance scheduling to maximise equipment reliability and minimise downtime.
If you thrive in fast-paced mining environments, enjoy being the person who keeps everything organised and running smoothly, and want a role where you can genuinely make an impact — this is it.
This role operates on an 8 days on / 6 days off FIFO roster from Perth.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll work closely with site leadership, maintenance teams, suppliers, and stakeholders to coordinate and optimise maintenance activities across the operation.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Planning and scheduling preventative and corrective maintenance activities
* Managing work orders, asset history, BOMs, and maintenance records within the CMMS
* Preparing work packs and coordinating labour, parts, and resources
* Leading shutdown planning activities including schedules and Gantt charts
* Coordinating daily and weekly maintenance planning meetings
* Raising requisitions, sourcing parts, and liaising with suppliers and contractors
* Monitoring equipment performance, downtime, and availability reporting
* Supporting workshop teams with technical planning and CMMS guidance
* Driving continuous improvement across maintenance systems and planning processes
What We're Looking For
You'll be a proactive and organised maintenance professional who enjoys working closely with operational teams and driving reliability outcomes.
To be successful, you'll ideally have:
* Extensive experience in fixed plant maintenance planning
* Strong knowledge of conveyors, crushers, and fixed plant equipment
* Shutdown planning and coordination experience
* Previous experience using CMMS platforms such as JD Edwards
* Strong planning, scheduling, and reporting capability
* Sound understanding of maintenance workflows and asset management
* Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
* A strong commitment to safety, teamwork, and operational excellence
Mechanical trade qualifications and Microsoft Project experience will be highly regarded.

When you join Bis, you'll get:
* FIFO 8/6 roster from Perth

* A high-impact role with autonomy and influence
* Long-term career opportunities across Australia
* A team culture built around safety, support, and collaboration
