Job description

One Harvest is one of Australia's leading fresh food businesses, with more than 1,000 team members helping nourish Australian families every day. We're driven by innovation, sustainability and continuous improvement, and we offer meaningful work in a fast-paced, purpose-led environment where safety, quality and care come first.

About the Role

We're looking for an experienced Mechanical Reliability Specialist to join our Reliability team.

This is a true individual-contributor specialist role, with no direct reports. Your impact comes from technical depth and influence, not from managing a team. You'll drive maintenance excellence across our mechanical assets, equipment and systems to improve reliability, minimise downtime and support operational performance, owning reliability initiatives, facilitating root cause investigations, and shaping our preventative and predictive maintenance strategy.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own and optimise Reliability-Centred Maintenance (RCM), preventative, predictive and condition-based maintenance programs across processing, packaging and utility assets.
  • Analyse equipment performance, machine health data and operational trends to identify and prevent potential failures.
  • Facilitate Root Cause Analysis (RCA) investigations and drive corrective and preventative actions to completion.
  • Provide technical support and troubleshooting expertise for mechanical systems and equipment.
  • Support lifecycle management of mechanical assets, including spare parts optimisation and capital projects.
  • Partner with production and maintenance teams to maximise equipment uptime and operational efficiency.
  • Work closely with OEMs, contractors and service providers to deliver effective maintenance solutions.

About You

You’re a proactive, analytical mechanical reliability professional with a passion for continuous improvement and operational excellence. You enjoy working collaboratively with stakeholders and using data-driven insights to improve equipment performance, and bring strong technical expertise and a proven track record of improving reliability outcomes in a manufacturing environment.

  • Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Process Engineering, or relevant trade qualification with significant industry experience.
  • Minimum 5 years' experience in manufacturing, industrial, process engineering or mechanical maintenance environments.
  • Strong experience with Reliability-Centred Maintenance (RCM), FMEA, RCA and continuous improvement methodologies.
  • Experience developing and implementing preventative and predictive maintenance programs.
  • Sound knowledge of mechanical systems including hydraulics, pneumatics, power transmission systems, pumps, blowers and conveyors.
  • Experience using Computerised Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS), preferably MEX.
  • Strong stakeholder management, communication and influencing skills.
  • Ability to work autonomously and manage multiple priorities.
  • Australian working rights.
  • FMCG, food manufacturing, meat processing or high-speed packaging experience.
  • Experience working within a Lean Manufacturing environment.
  • Project management experience.
  • Experience in machinery reliability, condition monitoring and predictive maintenance technologies.
  • Contractor management experience and understanding of Permit to Work and safe systems of work.
  • Knowledge of Australian machinery safety standards, including AS4024.

Why Join Us?

  • Play a key role improving reliability and performance at a leading Australian fresh food manufacturer.
  • Work closely with experienced engineering, maintenance and operational teams.
  • Influence site-wide reliability strategies and asset performance outcomes.
  • Join a values-driven organisation, with ongoing learning and development opportunities.

One Harvest is committed to an inclusive workplace where everyone is treated with respect and given equal opportunity to succeed.
