At Tronox, safe, reliable, and efficient operations are at the heart of what we do. We are seeking an experienced Control Room Specialist to enhance control room performance across the Kwinana Pigment Plant.
This newly created role will drive improvements in control room effectiveness by embedding best practices, optimising control strategies, reducing operational variability, and capturing critical operating knowledge. Working closely with Operations, Technical, Maintenance,
and Process teams, you will develop systems, tools, and standards that enable more consistent and effective decision-making.
As a key contributor to our Control Room Excellence Program, you will help strengthen operating systems and support safe, stable, and high-performing plant operations.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead initiatives to improve control room performance, operational consistency, and operator effectiveness.
- Optimise control systems by improving alarm management, control strategies, automation opportunities, and HMI design.

- Collaborate with Operations, Technical, Maintenance, and Engineering teams to drive continuous improvement and operational excellence.
- Monitor operational performance trends and identify opportunities to reduce variability, improve reliability, and enhance plant performance.
About You:

and helping others succeed through practical solutions and knowledge sharing.
You will ideally have:
- Significant experience operating or supporting complex continuous-process industrial plants.
- Strong knowledge of Distributed Control Systems (DCS) and process control principles.

- Demonstrated ability to analyse operational performance and identify improvement opportunities.
- Experience with alarm management, control strategy development, process optimisation, or industrial automation systems.
- Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
- Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication abilities.
- A collaborative approach with the ability to influence without direct authority.
- A strong commitment to safety, operational discipline, and continuous improvement.
Desirable Qualifications & Experience:
- Engineering, Process Technology, Instrumentation, Control Systems, Operations, or related technical qualification.
