Maintenance Specialist Electrical

Title:

Mantianence Electrical Specialist

Overview

The Maintenance Specialist Electrical (MSE) will be responsible for managing safe, compliant and reliable Electrical Maintenance activities and providing a clear direction with regards to priorities for the facility.

Reporting directly to the Maintenance Execution Team Leader (METL) the MSE is the key interface between the ROO and BOC Electrical Maintenance team and Electrical contractors.

The MSE role is a coaching and technical advisory position. Deliverables are achieved through influence, and this is heavily reliant upon the relationship the MSE develops with BOC Electrical dept staff at the field locations.

The MSE role will work closely with the Maintenance Advisor (MA) to deliver safe execution and timely resolution of electrical biased operational issues.

As a member of the ROO operations team the MSE has a key role in implementing good Work Management processes and adherence, which includes supporting efficient execution of work through identification, planning, scheduling & execution of planned and unplanned maintenance. The MSE also inputs to the maintenance build for projects and mods.

The role will coach and mentor local ROO National Electrical Supervision and technicians on all aspects of Electrical Maintenance and HSE related issues on existing and future facilities.

The MSE is expected to use best professional judgment and efforts in discharging the responsibilities listed in this job description, but it is recognized that (i) the MSE may not in practice always have control and authority over national staff tasked with executing certain activities in field locations necessary to discharge these responsibilities, (ii) this may impact the MSE's ability to perform their role, and (iii) achieving some deliverables may therefore depend on how effective the MSE is at influencing national staff (including via building relationships, coaching and advising).
