Ensure all operational, planned, and reactive maintenance activities are scheduled and completed on time in accordance with statutory legislation and agreed SLA response times

Develop, manage, and monitor employee performance against KPIs while focusing on people development and succession planning

Demonstrated experience in contract management and supporting documentation processes
Proven track record in team leadership, stakeholder engagement, and resolving complex operational problems
Responsive and supportive approach to meeting both internal and external customer needs
