Smelter Operation Readiness - Planner

Gresik, East Java, Indonesia PTFI Smelting & Refining

Responsible to ensure the reliability, availability, and efficiency of smelting and refining plant equipment by developing accurate maintenance plans, scheduling preventive and corrective work, coordinating resources, and ensuring execution aligns with safety, cost, and production goals.

• Develop and maintain preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance plans.
• Prepare weekly and monthly maintenance schedules aligned with production needs.
• Coordinate resources, tools, materials, and manpower required for maintenance activities.
