The work, day to day

Sign off modifications and keep drawings and records current
Manage shutdowns: planning, spares, contractors and safe restart
Hold the GMR 2.1 appointment and keep machinery safety legal on site
Prepare the maintenance budget and report monthly on spend
Analyse breakdowns with root cause methods and fix the cause, not the symptom

You'll need

Confident with 3D CAD software and engineering calculations
BEng or BSc Eng in Mechanical Engineering, or a BTech or Advanced Diploma for technologist roles
Working knowledge of the OHS Act and General Machinery Regulations
Registered with ECSA as Pr Eng, Pr Tech Eng or Candidate, depending on level

Three or more years working as a qualified engineer, in industry or consulting

What you get

Performance bonus tied to plant availability

Medical aid and retirement fund contributions

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

Put your ECSA category and number under your name. For senior roles it is often the first filter.
Keep the CV to three pages. Link to a short portfolio of designs rather than attaching large files.
