• Owns all maintenance operations for the facility, including corrugator, converting equipment, utilities, building systems, and material handling. Accountable for uptime, reliability, and response to breakdowns across both sites.

• Controls maintenance spend. Owns budget for labor, parts, contractors, capital repairs, and emergency work. Tracks cost drivers, reduces repeat failures, and justifies capital requests with data, not anecdotes.
• Partners with Operations and Production leadership. Aligns maintenance priorities with schedules, outages, and changeovers. Pushes back when production decisions increase risk, downtime, or safety exposure.
• Owns parts and inventory strategy. Ensures critical spares are identified, stocked, and audited. Eliminates obsolete inventory while preventing downtime caused by poor planning or shortages.
