The posting

About the role

We're seeking a contract Compliance Engineer to be the technical owner of classified plant compliance at a Queensland underground hard rock mine.

You'll assess inspection and service findings, determine the real level of risk, and hold contractors accountable for corrective work. You'll work alongside a Compliance Planner: you own the technical decisions, while the Planner looks after scheduling, logistics and administration.

This is a new role with stronger technical governance than before. It suits an engineer who wants to build a compliance program, not just maintain one.

Key responsibilities

Technical review and risk

  • Review contractor inspection, service and breakdown reports; validate findings and rate risk and priority
  • Make fitness-for-service decisions, including isolation, de-rating and return to service
  • Identify repeat failures and root causes, and recommend changes to maintenance strategy

Contractor management

  • Act as technical owner for all compliance contractors
  • Write technical scopes of work and approve quotes
  • Verify completed work against scope and standards, and accept or reject it
  • Review and sign Work Authorities, JSEAs and Working at Heights permits for high-risk work

Compliance and corrective actions

  • Maintain classified plant registers: inspection status, registration, defects and due dates
  • Raise SAP notifications and work orders, and drive closure of overdue and legacy items
  • Help design an improved system for tracking faults and corrective actions in SAP
  • Ensure compliance with the Mining and Quarrying Safety and Health Act 1999, Regulation 2017 and Australian Standards
  • Deliver monthly risk-based compliance reporting to equipment owners and leadership

Asset management

  • Update maintenance plans, task lists and inspection frequencies in SAP
  • Establish or confirm the pressure vessel compliance program
  • Spend regular time in the field, including underground, inspecting equipment and overseeing high-risk work

Your first 90 days

  • Report the compliance baseline across all three equipment classes
  • Confirm the pressure vessel, fire systems and crane registers, and close any gaps
  • Implement the improved fault and corrective action tracking format

Travel Arrangements

  • 9 day fortnight roster - 5/2, 4/3
  • Working from home to be agreed once established
  • Departure locations: Brisbane, Townsville, Cairns

About you

Essential

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering (or equivalent) with mechanical plant experience
  • 5–10 years in maintenance, reliability or asset engineering, including at least 5 years in mining or heavy industry
  • Underground mining experience
  • Experience managing statutory inspection programs for at least two of: fire protection, cranes, pressure equipment
  • Working knowledge of AS 2550, AS 1418, AS 1851, AS/NZS 3788 and AS 4343
  • Understanding of Queensland mining safety legislation
  • Experience managing contractors and holding them to scope
  • Proficiency in SAP PM and strong Excel skills
  • S1, S2 and S3 and Working at Heights tickets

Desirable

  • Underground hard rock mining experience
  • Fire suppression on mobile mining equipment (AS 5062)
  • Crane inspection experience
  • Root cause analysis training (e.g. ICAM, 5 Whys)

Personal attributes

  • Confident making technical decisions and explaining risk clearly to operators, supervisors and managers
  • Firm but fair with contractors, and comfortable rejecting substandard work
  • Works independently, owns outcomes and raises issues early
  • A collaborative team player who engages well with maintenance, production and reliability teams
  • Active contributor to site safety
