  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Production, Maintenance, and Engineering teams to deliver system reliability and uptime.

About You

  • 5+ years' experience in a maintenance, automation or reliability role within FMCG, chemical or pharmaceutical manufacturing.
  • Strong knowledge of Australian electrical standards and safety systems.
  • Proven experience with PLCs, SCADA, and automation troubleshooting (Siemens / Allen-Bradley highly regarded).
  • Hands-on, proactive problem-solver who thrives in fast-paced, legacy plant environments.
  • Strong communicator and collaborator with a continuous improvement mindset.
  • Leadership skills to support and mentor others as the function grows.
