RobLawMax Recruitment is proud to be partnering with Channel Terminal Services to appoint an Asset Reliability Engineer, supporting the ongoing development of their asset management function at Marsden Point.
Channel Terminal Services operates critical fuel infrastructure supporting New Zealand’s energy supply chain. As the asset management framework continues to mature, this role will play an important part in strengthening reliability programmes and preventive maintenance plans across the terminal.
Reporting to the Asset Services Manager, this position will contribute to asset lifecycle planning and reliability improvement as the organisation approaches the end of its first five-year asset management cycle.
About the Role
This is a technically focused engineering role centred on practical reliability and asset planning support, including:
- Assisting with the development and refinement of reliability programmes
- Updating and strengthening preventive maintenance plans
- Supporting asset management plan reviews and documentation refresh
- Contributing to asset criticality assessments and reliability analysis
- Working collaboratively with operations, maintenance, and project teams to embed reliability thinking into day-to-day practices
- Supporting continuous improvement of asset performance and lifecycle decision-making
This role is suited to someone who enjoys working in asset-heavy, regulated environments and translating reliability engineering principles into clear, practical plans.
About You
We are seeking a degree-qualified Mechanical, Electrical, Controls, or related Engineer who:
- Has experience working in a reliability engineering and asset management capacity
- Has been involved in developing or improving preventive maintenance plans
- Brings experience from asset-intensive environments such as energy, industrial processing, infrastructure, manufacturing, or similar
- Has strong analytical capability and confidence working with engineering documentation
- Is comfortable collaborating across disciplines and supporting operational teams
Major Hazard Facility experience is not essential. Experience from other regulated, asset-heavy environments will transfer well, with site-specific knowledge able to be developed on the job.
This opportunity will suit an early-to-mid career engineer (typically 4–8 years’ experience) looking to deepen their reliability and asset management capability within a nationally significant infrastructure environment.
What’s on Offer
- Competitive Salary
- Incentive bonus
- Exposure to critical infrastructure assets
- Opportunity to support and grow within a developing asset management function
