The Role
The Maintenance Coordinator at our Mitcham site ensures the safe and reliable operation of site plant and equipment by applying strong technical engineering knowledge to plan, prioritise, and coordinate all maintenance activities.

Acting as the central link between Engineering, Reliability, Operations, and contractors, the Maintenance Coordinator ensures maintenance work is properly scoped, risk assessed, resourced, and recorded driving equipment uptime, regulatory compliance, and long-term asset reliability.
