Deputy Operations Manager– Integrated Services

to step into a senior operational leadership role within one of the most active, diverse and fast-growing areas of our business.

This is a role for a leader who wants to be where the action is. Integrated Services is expanding, winning new contracts, launching new services and identifying further opportunities across the Pilbara and beyond.

This includes maintaining service continuity, supporting mobilisation and demobilisation, resolving operational issues, mentoring leaders, maintaining client confidence and ensuring the business continues to deliver safely, efficiently and profitably.

Commercial capability across labour management, cost control, productivity, margin protection and service performance.

Confidence developing client relationships, supporting contract performance and converting client needs into deliverable operational solutions.
