What you will do

• Provide day-to-day supervision, coaching, and performance management of 12 Facilities Shift Technicians across both rotational shifts, ensuring adequate cover, competency, and morale at all times

• Support and enforce safe systems of work, permit to work, LOTO, confined space, and other high-hazard controls across all shift activities
• Monitor and report on Facilities KPIs including PPM compliance, breakdown response times, and backlog, identifying and driving improvement actions
• Liaise closely with the Facilities Manager, EHS, Manufacturing, and R&M teams to ensure Facilities service delivery meets site and customer needs
