About the Role

Reporting to the General Manager and leading a team of 35+ staff, this is a hands-on leadership role in a fast-paced, around-the-clock environment. You’ll balance operational delivery with people leadership—driving performance, building capability, and maintaining a strong, resilient team culture.

You will:

• Lead a safety-first culture, ensuring compliance and accountability at all levels

• Oversee the day-to-day performance of a 24/7 operation, ensuring efficiency and reliability

• Have clear, constructive, and at times difficult conversations to address performance and behaviour

• Build and maintain trusted customer relationships

• Ensure inventory accuracy and operational integrity

• Manage site assets to ensure operational readiness

• Uphold company standards and regulatory requirements

You are an experienced people leader who:

• Demonstrates resilience and emotional maturity in a demanding operational environment

• Is confident addressing underperformance and not afraid to have tough conversations when needed

• Has proven experience leading large, shift-based teams (ideally in 24/7 operations)

• Builds high-performing teams and confidently manages performance

• Is commercially aware, customer-focused, and solutions-oriented

• Brings strong organisational skills and attention to detail
