• Coordinate the full maintenance workflow including identification, prioritization, planning, scheduling, and execution of preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance activities.
• Lead daily and weekly planning and scheduling meetings to align maintenance execution with operational priorities and resource availability.
• Ensure maintenance work scopes are clearly defined, technically sound, and aligned with best practices and manufacturer recommendations.
• Drive schedule compliance by coordinating resources, removing execution barriers, and monitoring progress against plan.
• Ensure all maintenance procedures are followed and work is executed safely, efficiently, and to quality standards.
• Coordinate execution of maintenance activities during routine operations as well as planned shutdowns and unplanned outages.
• Support development of job plans and work packages to enable efficient execution by maintenance teams.

• Coordinate with SHE teams to ensure safety and environmental considerations are integrated into maintenance plans.
• Monitor unit conditions and daily logs to proactively identify emerging maintenance needs and adjust priorities accordingly.

Accountability 4: Work Management & Prioritization

• Manage work orders within SAP from initiation through execution and completion, ensuring data accuracy and proper documentation.
• Evaluate and prioritize competing maintenance requests based on safety, reliability, and production impact.
• Create and manage work notifications for maintenance activities not generated through routine processes.
• Allocate resources effectively across maintenance activities, balancing planned work, backlog reduction, and emergent issues.
• Monitor and manage maintenance backlog to ensure timely execution of critical work and alignment with site targets.
• Ensure execution teams clearly understand work priorities, scope, and expectations for both scheduled and break-in work.
• Continuously review and optimize maintenance workflow processes to improve efficiency and execution discipline.
