European Maintenance & Reliability Engineer
What does a typical day look like? These are your main tasks:
Maintenance Management: Develop, implement, and review maintenance programs to minimize equipment failures, increase plant availability, and reduce costs. This includes performing asset criticality assessments, developing and revising maintenance concepts using FMEA, scheduling weekly maintenance activities and managing shutdowns, handling emerging work and scheduled maintenance, and improving maintenance catalogues and managing spare parts/material standardization.
Reliability Engineering: Drive reliability initiatives to reduce failures and optimize resources. This includes conducting asset criticality assessments and failure reduction investigations, leading FMEA workshops and reliability analyses, facilitating root cause analysis and implementing reliability solutions, and managing condition monitoring programmes and self‑assessment audits.
Collaboration & Performance: Work closely with site leaders, maintenance and engineering managers, and other operational teams to set and achieve goals, objectives, and performance metrics.
What exciting challenges will you take on in this role? These are your job responsibilities.
Maintenance
Lead the development of new or improvements to existing maintenance strategies for critical and bad‑acting assets, focusing on failure reduction, reduced costs, and utilisation of resources and technology.
Lead and develop schedules for maintenance and engineering for daily/weekly activities and shutdowns, working closely with key stakeholders at sites. Developing schedules using SAP and Microsoft Project; identifying critical paths, resource levels, and improvement opportunities.
Work closely with procurement to establish assets and materials that can be standardised and provide opportunities for savings.
Provide analysis of SAP data and information for notifications, work orders, and maintenance plans/items.
Generate monthly KPIs and report trends, together with maintenance cost trends vs. budget, with recommendations and actions for improvement.
Monitor self‑assessment activities and KPIs to achieve the goals set at the beginning of each year.
Reliability
Lead and facilitate root‑cause analysis (RCA) sessions, failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) workshops, and progress‑tracking meetings. Work closely with site teams to enhance thinking and application of the tools.
Oversee the program and identification of bad actors (failure reduction, loss elimination, and mechanical integrity) and initiate reliability projects for each item.
Identify predictive maintenance techniques that can be applied to increase plant availability and deploy them where cost‑beneficial.
Provide guidance and expertise on countermeasures/solutions that could prevent or detect the causes established from investigations and simple problems.
Oversee possible solutions through investigations with vendors, covering design, capabilities, restrictions/limitations, material of construction, specification, costs, etc.
Lead the Condition Monitoring programme at allocated sites, identifying critical assets and predictive opportunities to increase asset reliability and reduce costs associated with failures.
The role-holder has jurisdiction to make decisions relating to:
Agreement on key decisions with stakeholders (site maintenance leaders, site leaders, central and site engineering resources)
Corrective actions resulting from failure investigations
Shutdown plans and associated activities
Week‑to‑week maintenance schedules
Qualifications
University degree in an engineering discipline is preferred, or the necessary experience and knowledge, with a proven track record of managing maintenance and reliability programmes and initiating failure analysis investigations with evident improvements.
Experience in a maintenance and/or reliability role within the chemical or other process industries, with a minimum of 3–5 years’ experience.
Minimum 5 years’ experience managing maintenance execution with shutdown management experience and/or investigating reliability issues through problem‑solving, solution identification, implementation, and effectiveness reviews.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, including effective communication with others for whom English is a second language.
Experience using SAP‑PM, MM & DMS.
Travel for periods within Europe (typical duration 1 week) when business requires.
