• Lead the development, implementation, and continual improvement of an asset management governance framework, including documenting guidelines and procedures for decision making.
• Ensure the compliance reporting framework results in assets being managed in alignment with enterprise standards and legislative obligations; changes are effectively managed and governed.
• Identify, evaluate, coordinate and publish changes to Technical Maintenance Plans (TMPs) Rolling Stock is accountable for, ensuring TMPs are centrally controlled and updated in a coordinated manner (single source of truth).
• Collaborate with SERQ to manage and perform audits of asset maintenance activities and processes to inform TMP compliance, procedural compliance, and opportunities for improvement.
• Establish and maintain processes to manage relevant risks so that impacts to safety, commercial outcomes and operational performance are mitigated.
• Lead asset management process and procedure maturity improvement and coordinate efforts to achieve ISO55001 accreditation and demonstrate continuous improvement using a scoring framework.

• Process driven, organized and detail oriented.
• Tertiary qualifications in IT or Engineering.
• Extensive experience in a maintenance environment (ideally 8+ years).
• Understanding of asset management principles as expressed in ISO55000 and application to MTM Rolling Stock disciplines.
• Experience in maintaining, updating, and enhancing asset systems.
