YOUR ROLE
We're seeking an experienced Operations Manager - Tooling & Parts to lead a new dedicated Contract Logistics operation in Dubbo supporting the renewable energy sector.
This is a hands-on leadership role combining technical operations, warehousing, customer service and people leadership. You'll lead a small team responsible for specialised tooling servicing and parts warehousing, with end-to-end accountability for safety, quality, tooling availability, inventory accuracy, operational performance and customer delivery.
Importantly, this is not a purely desk-based management role. You'll bring a practical technical background and remain close to the operation, providing hands-on support where required and appropriately trained and authorised.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?
Lead the day-to-day operation across specialised tooling servicing and parts warehousing
Plan resources, workload and priorities to meet routine, planned and urgent customer requirements
Lead and support tooling activities including inspection, servicing, maintenance, repair, calibration, certification, preparation and dispatch
Oversee inbound receipt, inventory control, picking, packing, kitting, dispatch and returns across the parts operation
Act as the primary operational contact for the customer, resolving service issues and escalating risks where required
Own site performance across tooling availability, inventory accuracy, order fulfilment, safety, quality and agreed KPIs
Maintain effective financial and commercial control across labour, operating costs, productivity and contract performance
Lead QHSE compliance, operational risk management and a strong site safety culture
Ensure accurate and effective use of warehouse, maintenance, inventory and asset-management systems
Recruit, coach and develop the site team, including coordination of customer-specific technical training and competency development
Drive continuous improvement across safety, quality, customer service, productivity and asset utilisation
WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
You'll bring strong operational leadership experience from an electromechanical, industrial maintenance, technical services, engineering support, warehousing or similarly technically focused environment, underpinned by a relevant technical, vocational or trade qualification, or equivalent demonstrated technical experience.
Hands-on experience with mechanical, electrical and/or hydraulic equipment, tooling or industrial assets
Demonstrated experience leading teams and managing customer-facing operational service delivery
Strong warehouse and inventory-management capability, including accountability for KPIs, safety and quality
Sound commercial acumen across labour,
budgets, productivity and operational performance
Confidence working with ERP, WMS, CMMS and/or technical asset-management systems
Strong judgement and practical problem-solving capability, with the ability to respond effectively to changing and urgent priorities
A collaborative leadership style and strong customer focus.
Availability to undertake approximately 2-3 months of paid customer training in Newcastle from around early November 2026, with some international travel to Spain also likely as part of the training programme; a valid passport will therefore be required.
Experience within renewable energy, power generation, mining, heavy industry or industrial services will be highly regarded, as will exposure to specialised tooling, maintenance, calibration, certification or technical asset management.
In addition to providing proof of work rights and suitable professional referees, progressed candidates will be required to undergo a medical assessment and national police check.
WHAT DO WE HAVE TO OFFER?
In addition to a challenging and rewarding work environment and competitive compensation, we are proud to offer a range of employee perks designed to support your wellbeing, and help you thrive at work and in life.
- Personal wellbeing: prioritise your health and wellbeing through the CEVAwell program, Employee Assistance Program, Volunteer Time Off, and Life & Total Permanent Disability Insurance.
