- Liaise with external contractors, suppliers, and regulatory bodies to ensure that all plant engineering activities meet contractual, legislative, and industry compliance requirements
- Contribute to the development and review of safe work procedures, risk assessments, and engineering documentation in line with workplace health and safety obligations

## Required Qualifications & Skills

- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Chemical, Industrial, Manufacturing, or a related engineering discipline
- Proven experience in a production, plant, or manufacturing engineering role within an industrial or heavy industry environment

- Solid understanding of quality management systems, inspection protocols, and testing methodologies
- Working knowledge of relevant Australian safety standards, codes of practice, and legislative requirements (e.g. WHS Act)
- Proficiency in engineering design and project management tools, including CAD software and Microsoft Office Suite
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to interpret technical data and drive evidence-based decisions
- Effective communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams
- Ability to manage competing priorities, lead projects end-to-end, and deliver results in a fast-paced production environment

## Preferred Qualifications

- Postgraduate qualifications or professional development in project management, asset management, or a related engineering discipline
- Membership with Engineers Australia or an equivalent professional engineering body
- Certification or demonstrated experience in Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, or continuous improvement methodologies
- Experience with Computerised Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) such as SAP PM, Maximo, or equivalent platforms
- Familiarity with process safety management, HAZOP studies, or similar risk assessment frameworks
- Experience working within regulated industries such as food and beverage, mining, oil and gas, or pharmaceutical manufacturing
