About the role 

The BHP Coal IROC (Integrated Remote Operations Centre) is located in the Brisbane CBD and is seeking a live machinery condition monitoring specialist. As a remote operations Maintenance 1 (M1) Controller you will be optimising our mining fleet across our central Queensland mining operations. This role involves performing maintenance troubleshooting remotely to diagnose and rectify faults on mining equipment at our BHP Coal operations. As part of the Mine Control team, you will work together with our onsite maintenance and operations teams and liaise with other IROC controllers to optimise performance at our operations.

You will work in an environment which is dynamic and striving to continuously improve performance, and with this, you will be involved in continuous improvement projects to help us become even better! 
In this role you will:

•    Analyse sensor and alarm data from mining machinery to make informed decisions that prevent unplanned machinery downtime. 
•    Respond to maintenance warnings and faults from our mobile fleet to provide real-time diagnosis and recommendations.
•    Address queries from operators to efficiently manage and minimise unplanned downtime.
•    Proactively communicate with a range of stakeholders to influence and guide maintenance and production teams in a time constrained environment. 
•    Optimise operational practices to improve equipment condition and reliability. 
•    Develop and foster positive relationships with our site operations, including travel to our mine sites. 
•    Collaborate across IROC, MCOE and site maintenance teams to implement improvement initiatives. 
•    Be part of our cutting-edge Asset Health program, utilising and improving analytical tools to enable greater fleet reliability.

As part of a team of M1 Controllers you will be responsible to work with our site-based maintenance and mining teams to safely increase mining equipment reliability.  

This will involve monitoring equipment and maintenance performance, applying defined processes and identifying abnormal equipment condition within shift. Your role is to liaise with production and maintenance teams to prioritise issues and have equipment condition restored safely. This work will test your ability to learn the agreed work processes and use maintenance monitoring systems effectively and apply these skills.
