In your new role of Site Supervisor, you will provide leadership, mentoring, development, and expert tactical decision making for the staff and operations at the MacArthur wind farm. You will champion safety, health and environmental matters and excellence in operations and maintenance. Leading the development of operational tasks such as roster development, training management, you will support the preparation of large maintenance campaigns and projects.

While this role is site office based, you will maintain daily interaction with field staff for the purpose of safety, quality assurance and other verification tasks to ensure the site meets the AGL’s operational standards.

• Champion safety, health and environmental care and excellence in operations and maintenance through active leadership, field verification and coaching.
• Provide leadership and mentoring to all Site Technicians, supporting their training and development.
• Lead the development of site coordination activities (rostering, training plans and scheduling) and participate in planning for major outages and projects with the support of AGL’s maintenance support functions.
  

About You

You value ownership as a leadership philosophy – you don’t walk past a challenge, you own it and solve it. While upholding the highest standards of health, safety and environmental care, treating others with respect and striving for excellence in your work, you will contribute to a positive team environment and are motivated to deliver to a high standard.

What You’ll Bring To The Table

• Extensive experience providing leadership and supervision for industrial sites with experience in wind farm leadership preferred.
• Experience in leading continuous improvement, process, and procedural improvement.
• Experience in incident investigation, root cause analysis, risk assessment and management.
• Mechanical or Electrical Trade qualification and/or qualifications in Engineering, Construction Management, Project Management or related discipline.
