Your role

Cement Australia recognises the value graduates add to their business. So, they designed a 2-year graduate program that gives you meaningful work, access to experienced mentors and the opportunity to learn and grow.

They are looking to ultimately develop you into an Operations Manager or technical expert - in the future you could be leading teams, improving plant reliability or being the one who solves some of their most complex and challenging problems.

You will be given day-to-day responsibilities, critical project work (even managing your own) and both structured and on-the-job learning. There may also be the opportunity to complete short projects that take you to other sites to broaden your experience.

As a Mechanical Maintenance Engineer

Joining the Operations division, you will provide technical and engineering support to the site maintenance team. This includes:

• Identifying and managing risks
• Root cause analysis investigation and reporting
• Condition monitoring
• Analysing data, problem-solving and troubleshooting equipment issues
• Contributing to maintenance planning and execution
• Managing or contributing to reliability improvement projects
• Capital projects and shutdown work with the potential to enhance your leadership skills and supervise small teams.

Through this work, you will develop your understanding of the maintenance and asset management life cycle and make a valuable contribution to their sites.
