Mackay Regional Council is seeking an experienced Planning & Reliability Lead to establish and lead a new asset planning and reliability function within our Mobile Assets Program.

This is a newly created leadership role. We are not looking for someone to inherit mature reliability systems, established reporting frameworks or existing asset strategies. We are looking for someone to help build them.

Reporting to the Executive Manager Mobile Assets, you will develop the frameworks, governance, reporting, reliability methodologies and lifecycle strategies that will support one of regional Queensland's most diverse fleet portfolios.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop fleet maintenance planning and reliability frameworks
• Establish asset health monitoring and condition-based maintenance programs
• Drive lifecycle planning and risk-based replacement strategies
• Develop meaningful asset performance, downtime and reliability reporting
• Define data requirements and decision-support frameworks
• Lead continuous improvement initiatives across fleet maintenance and asset management
• Provide leadership and technical direction to specialist staff

About You

You may currently work in mining, resources, utilities, transport, rail, ports, defence or a similarly asset-intensive industry.

You could be a:

• Reliability Engineer
• Maintenance Superintendent
• Senior Maintenance Planner

Most importantly, you will have experience building systems, processes and frameworks that improve reliability, asset performance and long-term decision making.

• Flexible work arrangements with a 9 Day Fortnight RDO
• Choice of 4 or 5 weeks' annual leave with 17.5% leave loading

• Strategic leadership responsibilities
• Opportunity to build a function from the ground up
• Long-term stability and career growth

We focus on outcomes, accountability and results. Whether you work from the office, from home or a combination of both, you'll be trusted to deliver meaningful outcomes rather than simply clock hours.

The Opportunity

Most planning and reliability roles involve maintaining someone else's framework.

This role offers the opportunity to create one.
