You’re the kind of person who builds things properly. You don’t wait to be told. You assess what’s needed, make a plan, and get it done. You understand that in a compliance-driven environment, cutting corners is never an option.
You’ve run a vehicle operator’s licence before. You know what good fleet and plant management looks like: the systems, the standards, the discipline it takes to keep everything – and everyone safe and moving. And you’re ready to build that from the ground up in a business that’s growing.
This is a newly created role at a critical point in Alconex’s growth. If you want real ownership of a new function, in a team that backs you to lead it, we’d like to start a conversation.
What You’ll Be Doing
As Plant & Fleet Manager, you’ll be building and running a function that has four clear priorities:
- Securing the operator’s licence for our newly acquired 32t
- Grab vehicles Scoping and implementing a vehicle and plant management system
- Running that system day to day once it’s live

In your first 90 days, we’ll expect you to:
- Hit the ground running: get to know the team and understand the business quickly
- Support the transition of plant management from a procurement function into a standalone team
- Manage and support the plant manager who currently looks after hire and smaller plant and some transport functions
- Commence and fulfil the operator’s licence process
