Engagement Lead - Artificial Intelligence for Maintenance (maint.ai) Perth

Wood has an immediate requirement for an Engagement Lead to join our Energy, Optimisation and Innovation team located in Perth. The successful candidate will join an assembly of global talent that is shaping powering successful digital transformation in a practical, tangible way.

We are looking for individuals who would get a kick out of working closely with clients, and our best global business, digital and deep domain experts, to drive real tangible decarbonisation and transformation outcomes for energy, mining and public infrastructure assets.

About the role:

• You will typically lead a client project team of 5-8 business, digital and deep domain experts focussing on rapid and sustained value delivery in maintenance, production, reliability, inventory and emissions
• Our final deliverables and artefacts gravitate towards providing software solutionsincluding artificial intelligence and physics models that continuously look to add value through operations
