Qualifications

• Multidisciplinary engineering breadth across mechanical, electrical, fire, water and utilities, sufficient to lead diagnosis and decision-making across trades.
• Working knowledge of GMP‑regulated environments and the evidentiary standard required for audit, validation and regulator scrutiny.
• Ability to operate under the dual Comcare and Victorian OHS jurisdiction and reconcile them into one practical compliance position.
• Root cause diagnostic capability

Responsibilities
