To succeed in the role, you:

• have strong maintenance execution and troubleshooting capability across electrical, mechanical, control, and associated systems
• demonstrate safety leadership and have practical knowledge of safe systems of work, lifting operations, working at height, and incident investigation
• have experience supervising technicians, specialists, or contractors and can provide clear direction, coaching, and technical guidance

• hold a relevant technical qualification, apprenticeship, degree, or equivalent experience
• can make sound operational decisions, manage changing priorities, ensure accountability, and collaborate effectively with colleagues and stakeholders.
