Rural Maintenance Coordinator
The Opportunity
Are you an experienced Civil or Road Maintenance Supervisor ready to take the next step in your career?
We are seeking a Rural Maintenance Coordinator to lead the delivery of road maintenance services across the Flinders region.
Moving beyond the day-to-day supervision of a single crew, you'll coordinate multiple work fronts and provide leadership and direction to Supervisors, field teams, contractors and subcontractors.
Reporting to the Area Manager, this role will give you greater exposure to operational planning, budgets, performance, client relationships and workforce development.
You'll help translate broader business priorities into practical outcomes in the field while ensuring work is delivered safely, efficiently and to a high standard.
This is an excellent chance for an established Supervisor who is ready to broaden their leadership responsibilities and contribute to the overall performance of a regional maintenance operation.
What You'll Be Doing
Leading and supporting Supervisors and field teams across multiple work fronts
Coordinating maintenance programs, resources, contractors and subcontractors
Managing area budgets, expenditure and minor works quotations
Monitoring operational KPIs, project costs, quality and delivery performance
Coaching Supervisors and developing capability across the wider team




Building strong relationships with clients, suppliers and local stakeholders
Identifying operational risks, resourcing needs and improvement opportunities
Ensuring works meet safety, environmental, quality and contractual requirements
Championing Downer's Zero Harm culture across all operational activities
What We're Looking For
You may already be working as a Supervisor within civil construction or road maintenance and be ready to take on broader responsibility across multiple teams and work programs.
You'll Bring:
At least five years' experience in civil construction, road maintenance or a similar operational environment
Experience supervising crews and coordinating resources across active work sites
The ability to step up and provide leadership to other Supervisors and field teams
Strong planning, organisation and problem-solving skills
Exposure to budgets, costs, quotations and performance reporting
Confidence working with clients, contractors and operational stakeholders
Sound knowledge of safety, quality and environmental requirements
A current Australian C Class Driver's Licence
A current White Card
A Diploma or Advanced Diploma in Civil Construction Management, Project Management or a related discipline would be advantageous but is not essential.
What's On Offer
A genuine step up from a site or crew-based Supervisor position
Broader responsibility across multiple teams and maintenance programs
Increased exposure to operational planning, commercial management and client relationships
The opportunity to coach and develop Supervisors and field teams
Ongoing training and professional development
Career opportunities across Downer's national network
A supportive environment where safety comes first
