Insight, Trends & Continuous Improvement Analyse failure trends and recurring issues, feeding insight into Infrastructure Management to influence planned maintenance strategies. Help shift demand from reactive to planned, improving long-term asset reliability. Provide trusted operational intelligence that supports smarter decisions across internal teams and third-party suppliers. Workflow Optimisation & Automation Design and refine rules-based logic for automated triage, warranty detection, allocation, and job bundling.

Reporting & Performance Monitor and report on KPIs including triage accuracy, rework rates, defect recoveries, automation success, and resolution performance by supplier. Report the balance of allocated vs. unallocated work to support understanding of asset risk exposure. Challenge the status quo-bringing external market insight and a "better every day" mindset to drive change. Who we're looking for: You're someone who thrives where operations, data, and judgement intersect. You'll have: Strong experience in reactive maintenance, service operations, or workflow control within utilities, transport, infrastructure, or similarly complex environments.
