Operation Director

Our client is a prominent Indonesian enterprise specializing in heavy logistics, mining transport, and material supply solutions. The organization operates large-scale haulage operations, managing heavy equipment fleets, haul roads, and complex logistics networks to transport bulk materials reliably across high-volume corridors.

Heavy Equipment Fleet Operations

• Direct day-to-day heavy haulage operations, ensuring high availability, utilization, and fast turnaround times for heavy dump trucks, trailers, and loading equipment.
• Oversee site logistics, dispatching cycles, route planning, and haul road maintenance to minimize cycle times and eliminate operational bottlenecks.
• Drive fleet maintenance strategies, preventive maintenance schedules, spare parts inventory, and breakdown recovery to maximize mean time between failures (MTBF).

Technical & Operational Leadership

• Establish technical standard operating procedures (SOPs) for vehicle load limits, fuel management, tire wear optimization, and overall mechanical integrity.
• Implement fleet telematics, GPS tracking systems, and IoT monitoring tools to track driver performance, fuel burn, and vehicle diagnostics in real time.
• Lead structural improvements in workshop management, mechanical engineering workflows, and vendor management for heavy equipment parts and servicing.

Strategic Execution & Cost Management

• Partner with executive leadership to establish operational targets, site-level budgets, and long-term haulage strategies.
• Optimize operational costs by tracking key performance indicators including cost-per-ton, fuel burn rates, tire lifespans, and fleet maintenance expenditure.
• Enforce strict HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) standards, road safety protocols, and regulatory compliance across all site facilities and haul routes.

• Haulage & Mining Logistics Focus: Deep technical knowledge of heavy transportation, hauling cycle optimization, haul road condition monitoring, and heavy equipment maintenance (Scania, Volvo, Caterpillar, Komatsu, or equivalent).
• Experience: 10+ years of progressive leadership experience in heavy haulage, mining operations, or heavy logistics, with at least 3–5 years at a Director or senior operational level.
• Technical Systems: Hands-on experience with Fleet Management Systems (FMS), telematics data analysis, GPS tracking, and maintenance ERPs.
• Education: Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mining Engineering, Transportation/Logistics Management, or related field; MBA or Master's preferred.
• Regulatory & Safety Compliance: In-depth knowledge of Indonesian heavy transport laws, OSHE standards, and site safety certifications (e.g., POP/POM/POU certifications are a strong advantage).
