A strategic engineering role with real operational impact
Bis Industries is a leading Australian provider of logistics and equipment solutions, supporting major resource and infrastructure operations nationwide. With a strong operational footprint and a commitment to safe, sustainable outcomes, asset reliability and maintenance strategy play a critical role in how we operate and grow.
We are seeking a Maintenance Strategy Engineer to lead the development and implementation of maintenance strategies that optimise asset performance, cost and reliability across our fleet.
This role is primarily remote, offering the flexibility to work from home while supporting operations across the business. To maintain strong collaboration with key stakeholders, occasional ad hoc travel to our Tomago Head Office will be required for meetings, workshops and business initiatives.
This is a genuinely broad role — suited to an engineer who wants to move beyond reactive maintenance and take ownership of whole-of-business maintenance strategy, partnering closely with operations, commercial and leadership teams.
About The Role
As Maintenance Strategy Engineer, you will provide end-to-end ownership of maintenance strategy across the business. While maintenance planning and scheduling are key components, the role extends well beyond this to include asset performance optimisation, lifecycle costing, reliability improvement, compliance and continuous improvement initiatives.
This role is primarily remote, providing flexibility to work from home while supporting operations across the business. To ensure strong collaboration with operational leaders and key stakeholders, occasional ad hoc travel to our Tomago Head Office will be required.
