Your Experience

You will need to demonstrate exposure to the successful implementation of significant improvements in Maintenance and Asset management performance, and should include specific, demonstrable success in implementing improvements in one or more of the areas listed above.

Previous line management or supervisory experience will be very highly regarded.

Experience in the Mining, Mineral Processing, Oil & Gas, or Defence industries is preferred, but we will also consider your job application if you have had operations, maintenance or management experience in other, relevant industries, such as Power Generation, Utilities, Chemicals/Petrochemicals, Aerospace or Heavy Manufacturing.

Tertiary qualifications in a technical discipline such as engineering is essential. Additional business or management qualifications will also be highly regarded. Previous consulting experience will also be regarded very favourably.

The ability to relate well to client staff at all levels is highly important, as is a high degree of self-motivation, and the capability to take the initiative and work independently when required.
Working with us will involve some intrastate, interstate and international travel, but we are careful to ensure that this, as much as possible, fits in with our staff’s personal and family commitments.

An attractive salary package, in the range from $120,000 to $180,000 per annum will be offered, commensurate with experience and qualifications.
