Is this your new career?

MinRes' Onslow Coastal facility is a standout operation on Australia's northwest coast — and keeping it running to a high standard takes more than good intentions. It takes an experienced administrator who knows how to coordinate trades, manage schedules, and stay on top of both planned and reactive maintenance without missing a beat. This is a permanent, site-based role operating on an 8/6 roster, working back-to-back with a counterpart administrator to ensure seamless day-to-day coverage across a well-established maintenance function.

Running the Day-to-Day

You'll own the administrative engine behind village maintenance at Onslow Coastal — a scope that spans residential accommodation, village facilities, and marine infrastructure. This is an established role with real responsibility:

• Coordinating preventative maintenance schedules across a multi-trade workforce including electricians, refrigeration technicians, plumbers, and carpenters
• Raising, assigning, and tracking reactive repair work orders through to completion, ensuring tradespeople and contractors are briefed, on-site, and signed off correctly
• Managing contractor access, compliance documentation, and site inductions in line with MinRes safety and site requirements
• Overseeing marine and residential maintenance activities, keeping stakeholders informed of progress, delays, and priorities

What You'll Bring

• Demonstrated experience coordinating maintenance or facilities operations, preferably in a village, construction, or remote site environment
• Confidence managing multiple trades and contractors simultaneously, with strong scheduling and follow-through skills
• Solid understanding of work order systems and preventative maintenance planning
• Clear, direct communication style — equally effective with tradies on the tools and management stakeholders
• Comfortable working an 8/6 residential roster based on site at Onslow
• Proficient in Microsoft Office and experienced with facilities or asset management software

Life and Work at Onslow Coastal

You'll be joining a tight-knit on-site team where your work has visible, daily impact — from a well-maintained room to a repaired marine berth. The back-to-back roster structure means your counterpart knows the role as well as you do, giving you a genuine handover and real time off when you're away. MinRes offers above-market remuneration, a supportive operational culture, and the stability of a permanent position within a function that underpins everything else on site.
