Your responsibilities

• Run the process, end‑to‑end: Oversee washing, crushing and screening to produce aggregates to spec for customers (e.g., concrete industry).

• Lead the shifts: Coordinate 3 shifts / ±20 operators; plan daily priorities, allocate resources, and ensure safe, efficient execution (your role is day hours).

• Translate quality to action: Turn lab results & specifications into clear set‑ups and instructions; verify on the outside work floor that settings and outputs match target curves.

• Equipment & settings: Adjust screens, crushers, wash circuits and water flows; monitor throughput, moisture, yield and gradation; troubleshoot bottlenecks in real time.

• Quality assurance: Perform routine checks, trigger lab tests, and lead root‑cause analyses when quality drifts—close the loop with corrective and preventive actions.

• People & safety: Coach operators, build capability on SOPs and best practices, and uphold HSE and environmental compliance at all times.

• Planning & logistics: Align production schedules with Shipping, monitor inventory levels (bunkers/stockpiles), and secure on‑time, in‑full deliveries.

• Continuous improvement: Drive practical optimizations on runtime, uptime, yield and energy/water efficiency; standardize successful settings across shifts.

• Stakeholder alignment: Work closely with Maintenance, Lab, Shipping and the Plant Manager; escalate when needed—final decisions on personnel & investments remain with the Plant Manager.
