Tā mātou arawātea | Our Opportunity:
Are you looking for your next exciting opportunity and are you keen to be responsible for the planning of major plant shutdowns, turnarounds and outages of Mercury Geothermal and Hydro assets? A key function within Mercury, the Turnaround Planner is responsible for ensuring that these major turnarounds are adequately resourced and deliver safe and effective outcomes that protect the integrity of generating assets.

The planner will proactively adopt maintenance best practice in the planning of major plant shutdowns, turnarounds and outage activities and fully utilize the Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS, i.e. Maximo) to deliver high quality multi discipline work packages. In delivering this role, the planner will ensure that planned turnaround activities comply with all relevant legislation, policies and standards.

The planner is responsible for planning all aspects of the major plant shutdowns, turnarounds and outages, including but not limited to contractor engagement, work package development, safety and pre-task risk assessments and cost management. The planner works closely with site resources throughout the planning process.

Reporting directly the Turnaround Delivery Lead, you will have a supportive and transparent leader and be party of a team of Planners who are dedicated to their roles and enjoy working together, sharing their knowledge.

Mercury operates a flexible working environment providing you with the autonomy and trust to work flexibly from our offices and work from home, recognising the value of this flexibility in the modern world. While this role does require on-site presence during turnarounds, there is the flexibility to work from home and from the office to suit your lifestyle with no set number of days in the office.

This role can be based in Rotorua or at one of our Geothermal stations in the Taupo area.
