Lead this kingdom with vision and oversight!
Just as Simba and Mufasa watch over their kingdom, we’re seeking a Plant Operations & Maintenance Manager to oversee and guide the entire operational and maintenance team with wisdom, strength, and vision.
In this role you will be responsible in taking a high-level view, ensuring every aspect of the wastewater treatment plant is running smoothly and effectively to deliver safe wastewater treatment for the Perth CBD.
You will lead with wisdom and inspire a dedicated team to uphold high standards, maximising productivity, and minimising downtime.
Build for the future! The water sector is always evolving. The expectations of the regulator, the customers, and the community are always increasing. You will strategise for sustainable growth and continuous improvement. It’s never a dull moment!
If you are ready to step into a role where your decisions impact every part of our “kingdom”, join us to lead with purpose and pride!
Base yourself in Subiaco at our third largest Plant in WA!
Be empowered to serve our Community & lead with care.
You will manage a team of 25 workers from Trades to Technical. You are where rubber meets the road, and momentum meets measurable results. Everyday you will be delivering on the core competency of the Water Corporation, delivering safe and effective wastewater treatment!
Your Community appreciate being valued and heard. Your Manager will support and encourage you to think ‘out of the box’ for solution. In this role, the buck stops with you. You will be given the autonomy and authority to make decisions.
You are empathetic, a visionary, and intrigued by creative problem-solving.
The first few months will have you familiarising yourself with our site and the team. You will take time understand the risks and embrace opportunities for finding better solutions.
The long-term plan will be running a sustainable operation of the site, a focus of cost reduction, achieving and succeeding requirements. For instance, with this plant being 100 years old, you will be involved in the planning of major upgrades. This will involve rebuilding of the entire site.
We require a go-getter! To truly excel in this role and steer the team to success, you will have a strong background of leading field-based teams, as well as having a background in technical expertise.
Building strong foundations and relationship across all hierarchy levels will be crucial. You will be working with field operators pulling broken pumps out of a well one second, and then leading a tour to board members or ministers another day. You need to be adaptable as no day will be the same. Does this excite you!?
