Accountability- Plant availability:

Plan, organize and monitor implementation activities for optimum plant availability

• Provide strategic oversight to ensure uninterrupted and optimized operations of Cement Mills, Packing Plant, including rotary packers, truck/wagon loading, and loose cement systems.
• Direct daily packing and dispatch planning aligned with business and logistics targets.
• Review and improve operational KPIs such as packing rate, accuracy, downtime, and dispatch performance.
• Strengthen coordination with Quality to uphold packing and product standards.
• Optimize workforce deployment, shift productivity, and workflow strategies.
• Ensure adherence to dispatch plans and seamless integration with logistics operations.

Maintenance Management

• Lead the development and execution of preventive and predictive maintenance strategies for all packing plant and jetty equipment (packers, loaders, conveyors, bucket elevators, bag filters, compressors, weighing systems, etc.).
• Drive reduction in equipment failures, improve MTBF, and minimize MTTR.
• Establish robust spare parts planning with timely procurement and inventory control.
• Ensure accurate documentation of maintenance logs, SAP compliance, and equipment history.
• Provide technical leadership for resolving complex mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation issues.

Plant Equipment Up gradation & Improvement

• Identify systemic bottlenecks and deploy process improvement initiatives to enhance throughput, reliability, and quality.
• Drive improvements in packing productivity, bag weight consistency, and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
• Implement lossreduction measures for spillage, leakages, and material wastage.
• Champion Lean practices (5S, Kaizen, RCA, TPM) and institutionalize continuous improvement culture.
• Lead initiatives to optimize power consumption and operational cost efficiency.

SHE (Safety, Health & Environment)along with Sustainability initiatives

• Ensure full compliance with statutory, corporate EHS guidelines and drive a proactive safety culture.
• Conduct and review toolbox talks, safety audits, risk assessments, and ensure closure of findings.
• Monitor and ensure effective performance of dustcontrol systems for emission compliance.
• Enforce strict PPE usage and safety protocols for employees and contractors.
• Oversee statutory inspections and maintain all regulatory documentation.

People Management & Development:

• Lead, mentor, and develop a multidisciplinary team of engineers, technicians, operators, and shift leadership.
• Drive technical capability building and continuous skill enhancement across operations and maintenance teams.
• Engage effectively with production, logistics, quality, stores, and contractor partners to ensure endtoend operational alignment.
• Manage and govern contract workforce performance and compliance.

Dispatch & Customer Interface

• Ensure precise, timely, and efficient truck/wagon/bulker loading as per dispatch and customer requirements.
• Strengthen coordination with transporters and dispatch teams to avoid delays and ensure smooth turnaround.
• Resolve issues related to bag quality, weight discrepancies, or loading inconsistencies.
• Ensure FIFO principles are consistently followed for product dispatch.

Cost Control:
Plan, Monitor & Control material

• Prepare and control annual O&M budgets for the packing plant, including spares, manpower, and consumables.
• Drive costoptimization initiatives across energy use, spares consumption, and maintenance activities.
• Evaluate and manage vendor/service provider performance to ensure costeffective and quality services.
• Use digital tools (EOW dashboards, sequencing systems, TAT analytics) for optimizing packer allocation and dispatch workflow.
• Coordinate with logistics and railway officials for despatch control and cost optimization.
