- Supporting continuous improvement in defect turnaround, asset health, and reliability.
- Supporting the development and prioritisation of an accurate forward log of maintenance activities and upcoming work.
- You'll also contribute to building a proactive maintenance schedule that avoids unplanned downtime, optimises service duration, and keeps our fleet operating at its best between maintenance windows.

What You'll Bring

- Heavy Diesel Fitter, Plant Mechanic, or related trade qualification.
- Experience working with the Caterpillar models listed above.
- Strong diagnostic and fault-finding abilities with a sharp eye for detail.
- Confident communicator with a safety-first mindset.
