The Opportunity

As a 2nd Class Welder / Fabricator at Steelcraft Framing, you will be responsible for safely fabricating and welding structural and light-gauge steel components to drawing and specification. Your work directly supports factory throughput, downstream installation quality and on-time delivery across our framing operation.

This is a role for someone who takes ownership of their output, accurate work, first time, every time. We run a levelled structure from entry through to advanced fabricators, with clear competency requirements at each stage. Where you start depends on what you bring; where you go depends on what you demonstrate.

What Success Looks Like

Within your first 30 days, you will have:

Passed our internal weld test to the required standard

Demonstrated secure welding practice and PPE compliance from day one

Understood our drawings, workflow and quality expectations

Ongoing success is measured by:

Safe work practices consistently demonstrated — no exceptions

Weld quality that meets Steelcraft standard with minimal rework

Components completed accurately, to specification and ready for the next process

Defects identified and escalated early — not passed downstream

Reliable attendance, punctuality and positive contribution to the team

What You Will Own

MIG welding and fabrication of structural and light-gauge steel components

Reading and interpreting Steelcraft fabrication drawings accurately





Inspecting your own work and maintaining first-time-right standards

Safe use of hand tools, grinders, cutting equipment and (at higher levels) overhead crane and forklift

Maintaining a clean, organised and compliant welding area

Identifying hazards, drawing errors or quality issues and escalating early

About You

You are a reliable welder who takes quality seriously and works safely without being told twice.

You will bring:

Demonstrated MIG welding experience in a production or fabrication environment

Ability to read fabrication drawings and follow instructions accurately

A disciplined approach to quality, you inspect your own work, and you care about the outcome

Solid WHS awareness including hot work controls, PPE and safe work practices

A willingness to support teammates and contribute to production flow

Experience in steel framing, structural fabrication or light-gauge steel is highly regarded. What matters most is weld quality, reliability and work ethic.

This Role Is Not for You If

You cut corners on safety or quality when no one is watching

Rework doesn't bother you

You need to be told what to do every step of the way

You struggle with drawings or precision fabrication requirements
