Maintenance and procedural compliance: Ensure PPM is completed to schedule and quality requirements; verify MOP, SOP, EOP, manufacturer guidance, PTW, risk assessments, isolations, impairments and return-to-normal controls before closing work.
Alarm, incident and emergency management: Ensure alarms are acknowledged and physically verified, lead troubleshooting and stabilisation, maintain incident communications through approved channels, review incident reports, support RCA, and take operational leadership until formally relieved.
Vendor, contractor and access control: Coordinate vendor work and escorts, monitor quality and housekeeping, enforce restricted-area access, and stop unauthorised, unsafe or procedure-deviating activities that could affect operations.
Risk, defects and safety: Assess operational risks for maintenance, abnormal conditions and temporary configurations; track defects to permanent closure, stop unsafe work, enforce PPE and EHS controls, and escalate high-risk or overdue matters.
Customer and stakeholder management: Ensure Service Desk, customer and vendor requests are acknowledged and progressed within the applicable SLA; maintain clear communication with Facilities Management, standby personnel and other stakeholders.
Performance and capability: Monitor KPI and SLA performance, coach the shift team, coordinate toolbox briefings, technical training and EOP drills, identify competency gaps, and implement corrective actions for repeated performance issues.
