Moses Macharia

HME Workshop Supervisor

With over a decade of experience, I have excelled as a Heavy Mobile Equipment Workshop Supervisor in the mining industry for the past two years. Initially starting as a mechanic in construction, I worked on land reclamation at Port Reiz before transitioning to the mining sector. My journey included five years as a heavy mobile equipment mechanic and three years as a shift supervisor. I have demonstrated strong leadership, optimizing equipment maintenance and ensuring safety compliance. My expertise in diagnostics, team management, and operational efficiency has significantly reduced downtime and enhanced productivity in both construction and mining projects.
