Job Description

Position Summary:
We are seeking an experienced Manager, Maintenance to join our team. The Manager, Maintenance will lead the site Maintenance Execution organization and own the delivery of safe, disciplined, CMMS-based (Computerized Maintenance Management System) maintenance from commissioning through first gas and into steady-state operation. The role is accountable for turning approved technical content into executable work, keeping the plant maintainable and available against the RAM availability basis (96.6%, with a long-term 99.5% ambition, to be confirmed against the O&M Philosophy / RAM study). As the senior owner of the Maintenance Execution lane, the role also owns the Maintenance Commissioning Readiness Plan — ensuring Maintenance is ready for first gas and for handover into long-term care.

Key Accountabilities:

• Safe & Disciplined Execution: Routine maintenance is executed safely and to standard across all disciplines (mechanical, rotating, electrical, I&E/analyzer), with visible field leadership, stop-work authority, and permit‑to‑work / LOTO discipline embedded through readiness, commissioning, start‑up, and steady‑state.
• Planning, Scheduling & Work Management: Approved technical content is converted into quality CMMS job plans, intervals, work orders, and weekly/monthly schedules; backlog is controlled, schedule compliance is tracked, and material readiness is confirmed before work is released.
• CMMS & Asset Data Integrity: The asset hierarchy, equipment master data, PM loading, BOM linkage, and failure history are built and governed so that work management, cost capture, and readiness reporting are accurate and auditable.
• Materials & Spares Readiness: Critical spares, kitting, preservation, and urgent field purchasing are in place so that execution is not constrained by materials — through commissioning peaks and into operations.
• Commissioning & First‑Gas Readiness: The Maintenance Commissioning Readiness Plan is owned end-to-end: system walkdowns, preservation, turnover, punch‑list review, PM activation, spares and vendor readiness, PSSR support, and transition to steady‑state — with issues risk‑ranked and closed or formally risk‑accepted before first gas.
• Cost Control & Opex Governance: The maintenance cost‑control operating rhythm is owned: CMMS cost‑coding discipline, contractor/vendor spend review, field‑buying control, Opex/Capex separation, forecasting, and monthly cost review with Finance, Supply Chain, and Maintenance leadership.
• Lifting & Rigging Support: Safe mobile‑crane and rigging support is available for routine maintenance, commissioning, start‑up, sustaining Capex, and outage lifting needs, within certification, competency, and site lifting rules.
• Team Capability & Leadership: A Maintenance Execution organization with the competency, coverage model, and operating discipline required for commissioning, first gas, and steady‑state operation is built and sustained, in line with the roadmap staffing timeline.
• Readiness‑Gate & Roadmap Alignment: Maintenance Execution deliverables meet the roadmap readiness gates and stay aligned with the O&M Philosophy, RAM availability basis, Project/CSU schedule, and CMMS structure.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in a Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, or related engineering discipline, or equivalent practical maintenance‑leadership experience.

Experience:

• Significant maintenance‑management experience in LNG, gas processing, petrochemical, refining, or power — including new‑plant commissioning, start‑up, or major project handover.

Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:

• Strong command of CMMS work management: asset hierarchy, PM development, job plans, scheduling, backlog, and cost capture.
• Proven leadership of multi‑discipline maintenance teams and management of OEM/vendor and contractor support.
• Strong understanding of MOC, PTW/LOTO, safety‑critical equipment, and maintenance cost control / Opex governance.
• Owner‑led mindset with strong safety leadership and operating discipline.
• Builds and develops teams, works effectively across Operations, Engineering, Reliability,
• Project/CSU, and support functions, and holds vendors and contractors to account.
• Converts complex readiness requirements into executable plans, communicates clearly with technical and non‑technical stakeholders, and makes calm, structured decisions under commissioning and start‑up pressure.
