Monitor shutdown performance through clear ownership, milestone tracking and KPIs, including scope stability, schedule readiness and close-out actions.
Implement contractor management compliance processes in line with the Fortescue Contractor Management Framework for all shutdown contractors prior to mobilisation.
Drive best-practice planning in line with the Fortescue Asset Management Standard.
Develop, manage and report OPEX and CAPEX budgets.
Work with operations, maintenance, engineering, energy modelling, power system and integrated planning teams to improve planning outcomes.
Lead continuous improvement across planning processes and systems.

Qualifications and Experience

Extensive shutdown planning and scheduling experience in mining, energy or heavy industry
Strong knowledge of CMMS and supporting maintenance planning platforms e.g. SAP, Anaplan, Shutdown Readiness Hub, SPEAR (Shutdown Resourcing) etc.
Experience aligning multi-counter plans and integrated energy dispatch models for accurate maintenance scheduling and budget forecasting
Excellent communication, stakeholder engagement and problem-solving skills.
Leadership experience in a supervisory role (desirable)
Project management experience, including budgeting, cost control and reporting (desirable)
