What are the responsibilities and job description for the Maintenance Manager position at The Mundy Companies?
The Mundy Companies, a leader in the industrial maintenance, services, and construction fields, is currently hiring the following for a Long-Term position in the Freeport, Texas area:
Manufacturing Maintenance Manager
Fertilizer Production Facility
Freeport, Texas
The Role
This isn't a desk job. As Manufacturing Maintenance Manager, you'll be the technical backbone of a fertilizer production facility — the person who knows why equipment fails before it fails, who leads trades crews with confidence, and who treats equipment reliability as a personal scorecard.
You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with operations leadership and process engineering to keep critical assets running safely and efficiently. When something goes wrong, you're the one with the answer.
What You'll Own
- Day-to-day reliability and maintenance of plant equipment — from proactive P-F curve intervention to hands-on troubleshooting when it matters most
- Direct supervision of maintenance workforce - Mechanical, I&E, and soft crafts.
- Smaller capital projects from concept through startup — budget, schedule, and technical spec ownership
- Equipment design, installation specifications, and commissioning plans for new and modified assets
- KPI development, continuous improvement initiatives, and maintenance documentation integrity
Who Thrives Here
The right candidate combines engineering fundamentals with a bias for action. You don't wait for problems to escalate — you anticipate them. You're comfortable in a hard hat and equally comfortable presenting cost-benefit tradeoffs to leadership. You build trust with your crew by knowing the work, not just managing it.
You probably have:
- A BS in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering (required)
- 3 years of progressive engineering experience at an industrial facility
- Working knowledge of mechanical systems, instrumentation/controls, pneumatics, and hydraulics
- Working knowledge of bulk and material handling conveyor systems, and automated packing systems
- Strong project management instincts and a track record of leading through change
You're even more competitive with:
- 5 years in plant engineering, reliability, or maintenance engineering
- Familiarity with Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) principles
- Experience with CMMS platforms such as SAP or Maximo
What We Offer
- Competitive salary commensurate with experience
- Relocation package for qualified out-of-area candidates
- 120 hours PTO plus paid holidays
- 401(k) with profit sharing
- Medical insurance
