Experience with mining equipment (Caterpillar, Komatsu, Hitachi, Liebherr) is highly regarded.

The Role Challenge

You sit at the critical point between customer request and workshop execution.Success means producing fast, accurate quotes without missing scope, risks or costs. You will need to think ahead, ask the right questions, and ensure the workshop receives clear, complete instructions every time.
