We can't tell you much about the company (for now).
What we can tell you is that this isn't your average maintenance role.
This is an opportunity to step into a newly created leadership position where you'll take the reins of a high-performing team, oversee critical assets, and put your stamp on maintenance strategy for a fleet that keeps a big part of Australia moving.
What's in it for you?
* A base salary of $200k + super + TOT, with a ute and fuel to keep you moving.
* A chance to shape policy, procedure, and workflows your way—backed by the support of a progressive GM.
* Career progression in a business that invests in its people, their skills, and their futures.
What you'll be doing
* Leading and mentoring a team of trades and fitters in both workshop and field.
* Managing maintenance schedules, downtime forecasting, and asset performance across drill & blast, exploration, and fleet equipment.
* Driving safety, compliance, and continuous improvement culture.
* Overseeing major repairs, rebuilds, and preventive programs while keeping external stakeholders on-side.
* Being the go-to technical authority for heavy mobile equipment.
What we're looking for
* 5+ years' leadership experience in maintenance/asset management.
* Mechanical trade qualification (Certificate III in Engineering Mechanical or Mobile Plant Technology).
* Solid background in forward planning, scheduling, and asset management systems (MEX a bonus).
* Confident communicator who can influence from the workshop floor to the boardroom.
* Statutory Supervisor training (completed or in progress) will set you apart.
* Flexibility to attend site when required and clear medical/police checks.
This role is for a natural leader who knows how to delegate, build trust, and deliver results without losing sight of the people behind the machines.
