At Re.Group, we turn waste into new possibilities.

As an Australian-owned recycling and resource recovery business, we're working towards a wasteless society, keeping valuable materials in use and out of landfill.

Our work makes a real difference. We collaborate with charities, private organisations and government to deliver recycling solutions that benefit local communities and contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable future.

We back our people with the trust, support and opportunities they need to learn, grow and do their best work.

About the Role

You'll have the opportunity to take ownership of reliability initiatives, solve complex technical problems and contribute ideas that improve how things are done. It's a role where your expertise and practical approach will make a visible difference to our operations.

Key Responsibilities

- Manage spare parts inventory, stock accuracy and critical spares availability to support operational reliability.
- Coordinate specialist contractors and suppliers for technical support, maintenance activities and equipment improvements.
- Deliver small-scale improvement projects, equipment upgrades and maintenance initiatives.
- Share technical knowledge and support the development of maintenance capability across our teams.

About You

You'll bring

- A qualification in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering.
