Job description

Hire Resolve is assisting petrochemical organisations in hiring experienced petrochemical professionals to support refinery, chemical, and downstream manufacturing operations across Australia. This is a multi-role opportunity covering several functions within the sector, including plant operations, process and project engineering, reliability and maintenance, HSE and process safety, quality and laboratory functions, supply chain, and commercial/technical services. These roles are designed for mid- to senior-level professionals and offer a clear pathway toward senior leadership positions such as Operations/Production Manager, Engineering Manager, Reliability Lead, HSE/Process Safety Manager, and broader site leadership roles.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead safe, efficient plant operations across continuous and batch processes, utilities, and supporting units
  • Drive process optimisation, debottlenecking, yield improvement, energy efficiency, and cost reduction initiatives
  • Support or lead capital projects from scope definition through execution, commissioning, and handover
  • Maintain robust technical documentation and change control (P&IDs, SOPs, operating envelopes, MOC)
  • Improve asset reliability through preventive/predictive maintenance strategies, RCA, shutdown/turnaround planning, and asset integrity programmes
  • Ensure compliance with WHS obligations and site HSE management systems, including major hazard controls where applicable
  • Lead and participate in risk assessments (HAZOP/LOPA), incident investigations, and corrective action closure
  • Manage contractors and safe systems of work (Permit-to-Work, isolations/LOTO, method statements and risk assessments)
  • Monitor and improve KPIs across safety, production, quality, reliability, and budget performance
  • Collaborate with Operations, Engineering, Maintenance, Laboratory, Supply Chain, and external vendors to deliver site objectives
  • Support internal and external audits and inspections; embed continuous improvement programmes
  • Coach and develop teams through training, competency development, and leadership support

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical/Instrumentation Engineering, Chemistry, or a related discipline (relevant professional registration is advantageous for some roles)
  • Typically 7–15+ years of experience in petrochemicals, refining, specialty chemicals, polymers, industrial gases, or comparable process manufacturing environments
  • Demonstrated experience in one or more tracks: operations leadership, process engineering, reliability/maintenance, rotating equipment, HSE/process safety, projects, quality/laboratory, or commercial/technical support
  • Working knowledge of WHS requirements and high-hazard safety expectations (Permit-to-Work, isolations/LOTO, contractor management, incident investigation, MOC; major hazard facility practices where applicable)
  • Familiarity with common plant systems and tools such as CMMS/EAM (e.g., SAP/Maximo), process historians (e.g., PI System), and standard engineering documentation practices
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills with the ability to lead cross-functional delivery
  • Willingness to work onsite in an industrial environment; some roles may involve shift coverage, on-call rotation, or travel depending on site needs

Benefits

  • Extra Superannuation - Pension plan
  • Unpaid Extended Leave
  • Work From Home - Flexible hours
  • Training & Development
