Job Description — Maintenance & Project Engineer
Key Responsibilities:
- Plan, oversee and execute maintenance programs for plant, machinery and infrastructure to ensure optimal equipment reliability and minimise downtime.
- Develop preventive maintenance (PM) schedules and lifecycle plans for major equipment/assets; monitor performance and track maintenance KPIs.
- Manage project-engineering activities: define scopes of work, prepare material/contractor requisitions, coordinate execution of modification, upgrade or installation projects.
- Coordinate with operations, engineering, procurement and contractors to deliver maintenance and project works within defined budget, schedule and quality standards.
- Conduct technical evaluations of equipment failures, root-cause analyses, recommend corrective actions and implement improvements.
- Maintain documentation: maintenance records, job cards, inspection reports, project progress reports, cost tracking, and ensure accurate data in maintenance management systems.
- Ensure compliance with health, safety and environmental (HSE) standards in all maintenance and project activities.
- Assist in preparing maintenance budgets, capital expenditure proposals, cost estimates for project modifications and monitor actual versus budget.
- Inventory/spares management: monitor critical spare parts, ensure material availability, optimise stock levels; coordinate with stores and procurement.
- Provide technical support to production/operations teams, respond to breakdowns, mobilise resources rapidly, and ensure prompt resolution of technical issues.
Typical Qualifications & Skills:
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, or related engineering discipline.
- Some years of relevant experience (e.g., 3-5+ years) in maintenance engineering and project management, preferably within manufacturing, industrial or energy sector.
- Strong technical knowledge of mechanical systems, equipment maintenance, project execution and maintenance management systems (CMMS/EAM).
- Good planning and organisational skills, ability to prioritise work, meet deadlines and coordinate multiple tasks simultaneously.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for cross-functional collaboration with operations, procurement, contractors and vendors.
- Proficiency with MS Office (Excel, Word) and ideally familiarity with maintenance/project tracking software.
- Understanding of HSE practices, safe working procedures, and ability to enforce them on site.
Why This Role Matters:
- This role ensures the company’s assets are kept in reliable operational condition and that engineering projects (upgrades, expansions, modifications) are executed efficiently — both crucial for keeping production/operation continuous and cost-effective.
- It offers an opportunity to work in a dynamic industrial environment and build skills across both maintenance and project execution functions — which enhances career growth prospects in engineering roles.
