  • Leading and supporting a small team of planning and stores officers, operations team leaders, and contractors.
  • Fostering a strong safety-first culture, ensuring full compliance with HSE standards and company values.
  • Conducting root cause analyses and implementing preventive measures to enhance equipment reliability.
  • Building strong working relationships with OEMs, service providers, and internal stakeholders to drive best practice and continuous improvement.

About you:

You'll bring:

  • A solid background in maintenance planning, reliability engineering, and asset management.
  • Knowledge of combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) technology and associated systems.
  • A degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Power Engineering (or equivalent experience).
  • At least 5 years' experience in power generation or heavy industry, including team leadership.
  • Strong project management and stakeholder engagement skills.
  • A commitment to safety, quality, and operational excellence.
