Job description

An opportunity to shape the future of maintenance in an established industrial business.

I’m partnering with an international manufacturing group with over 100 years of industrial presence in Belgium, currently modernizing its existing production site with state-of-the-art technology and new production installations.

Located less than an hour’s drive from Brussels, this is an opportunity to play a pivotal role in reshaping maintenance operations, developing people, and preparing an established industrial business for its next chapter.

The opportunity

As Head of Maintenance, you will report directly to the Plant Manager and take full P&L responsibility for the maintenance function, leading a team and managing a budget of around €10 million.

Your mission will go beyond maintaining equipment reliability. You will help lead the transition to advanced production technologies, new installations, digitalization, and new ways of working.

Key responsibilities

• Lead and develop a maintenance organization.
• Take full ownership of the maintenance function’s P&L and a budget of approximately €10 million.
• Drive equipment reliability, maintenance performance, and operational excellence.
• Prepare the team, processes, and capabilities for new production technologies and installations.
• Lead people through significant technical, digital, and cultural change.
• Work closely with the Plant Manager and cross-functional stakeholders to support a successful transformation.

Why consider this opportunity?

This is not simply a maintenance leadership role. It is an opportunity to shape the future of a long-established industrial operation, influence how maintenance is delivered, and build the capabilities needed for a new generation of manufacturing.

If you are an experienced maintenance leader who combines technical expertise, financial ownership, and the ability to lead people through complex change, I would welcome a confidential conversation.
