About Our Opportunity
As EMR continues to grow and modernise, we’re looking for a passionate and experienced Regional Electrical Engineering Maintenance Manager to take the lead on all electrical engineering and maintenance activities across fixed and mobile plant in our South region. This is a key leadership role for someone who thrives in a hands-on environment while thinking strategically about long-term reliability and performance.
You’ll be joining a business with a strong industrial heritage and a forward-thinking mindset—investing in new technologies, prioritising safety, and continually improving operations. In this role, you’ll play a critical part in that transformation, working closely with regional and site leaders as well as our central engineering and maintenance teams to drive improvements in safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.
From embedding proactive maintenance strategies to integrating smarter electrical systems, you’ll help define how we manage our plant and equipment for years to come. Most importantly, you'll lead and support a skilled team—ensuring they have the training, tools, and environment they need to deliver at their best.
What You Will Be Doing
You’ll take ownership of all electrical engineering and maintenance activity across the region, helping to shape the future of our plant reliability and safety.
Key responsibilities include:
• Leading the development and execution of regional electrical maintenance strategies
• Driving improvements in equipment reliability, uptime, and energy efficiency
• Supporting and developing maintenance teams across multiple sites
• Standardising best practices and ensuring compliance with safety and regulatory standards
• Identifying and implementing new technologies to improve performance and reduce costs
About You
You’re an experienced electrical engineering and maintenance leader who thrives in a fast-paced, heavy industrial environment. With a strong technical background and a hands-on approach, you know how to lead teams, drive performance, and deliver long-term improvements.
You’ll bring:
• Significant experience in electrical engineering and maintenance leadership
• A strong technical foundation—degree-qualified or time-served in electrical maintenance
• Proven ability to lead teams, manage contractors, and implement change
• A data-driven mindset with experience using asset management systems
• A safety-first attitude and a passion for continuous improvement
