- Carrying out day-to-day maintenance activities, shutdowns, and planning
- Working across mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation systems
- Using Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) to plan, prioritise, and track work
- Supporting plant improvements and reliability initiatives

- Supporting reporting, scheduling, and resource planning
- Driving maintenance performance, safety, and compliance standards
Requirements:

- Strong knowledge of plant maintenance, including mechanical, electrical, and control & instrumentation (C&I) systems
- Experience in energy, process, or industrial environments
- Understanding of ATEX/DSEAR and hazardous area requirements
