THE ROLE AND THE COMPANY
Heidelberg Materials provides the materials to build our future.
Our future is sustainable. Our future is digital. And it goes way
beyond cement, aggregates and ready-mixed concrete. Heidelberg
Materials North America, previously known as Lehigh Hanson,
operates more than 450 locations with approximately 9,000 employees
in the U.S. and Canada.------
Heidelberg Materials seeks to future proof its cement operations
with increased digitization and operational capability. The
overarching goal is to centralize operations, and to achieve
operational excellence. For this purpose, it is establishing the
Heidelberg Materials Remote Optimization Center (HROC) in its
headquarters in Irving, Texas.
As an HROC Major Outage Project Lead, in this role, you will be
responsible for planning, coordinating and managing major
maintenance outages across multiple cement plants within a
designated region. Based in a central location, you will
collaborate closely with plant teams, procurement, vendors and
contractors to plan and execute outage project activities, ensuring
minimal downtime and efficient utilization of resources. Travel to
the plant sites for outage preparation and execution will be
required, typically involving periods of two to four weeks.
What You'll Get to Do
- Outage Planning: Collaborate with plant teams to develop annual
comprehensive maintenance outage plans, including scope definition,
work scope preparation, resource allocation, scheduling, and
budgeting. Analyze historical data, equipment performance, and
maintenance requirements to optimize outage duration and minimize
production losses. Coordinate with region management and other
planners to optimize outage timing across all operations.
- Resource Coordination: Coordinate with internal and external
stakeholders to ensure the timely availability of necessary
resources, including workforce, equipment, materials, and
contractors, for successful outage execution. Monitor resource
utilization and identify potential conflicts or constraints to
ensure smooth operations.

all aspects of major maintenance outages, managing project
timelines, milestones, and deliverables. Conduct regular progress
meetings, monitor project status, and communicate updates to
stakeholders. Proactively identify and mitigate potential risks and
issues.
- Contractor Management: Collaborate with procurement teams to
select and manage contractors and vendors for specific outage
projects. Develop and enforce contractor safety protocols and
quality standards. Monitor contractor performance, adherence to
schedules, and compliance with contractual obligations.
- Budget Control: Develop and manage outage budgets, tracking
expenditures and ensuring adherence to approved financial limits.
Identify cost-saving opportunities and implement measures to
optimize spending while maintaining the highest quality
standards.
- Communication and Coordination: Facilitate effective
communication and coordination among plant teams, maintenance
personnel, contractors, and other stakeholders involved in the
outage projects. Provide regular updates on project status,
milestones achieved, and any deviations from the plan.
- Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities for process
improvement and implement best practices for outage planning and
execution. Analyze outage performance metrics, collect feedback
from stakeholders, and drive initiatives to enhance efficiency,
safety, and overall effectiveness of major maintenance outages.
- Documentation and Reporting: Maintain accurate and up-to-date
documentation of outage plans, work orders, safety procedures, and
other relevant records. Prepare comprehensive reports summarizing
outage activities, including cost analysis, downtime, and key
performance indicators (KPIs).
- Support facilities in the implementation of Heidelberg
Materials maintenance and planning programs.
