We have been making an impression since 1903 — making us Australia’s oldest signage company. From our Sunshine West facility we design, fabricate, install and maintain signage for some of the country’s best-known brands, covering everything from illuminated pylon signs and shopfronts through to large-format architectural and retail projects.

Our workshop is the heart of the business. We are looking for a skilled Fabricator / Welder to join our production team.

About the role

Reporting to the Production Manager, you will fabricate signage components and structures from mild steel, stainless steel and aluminum — working from shop drawings through to a finished product ready for paint, powder coat and installation.

Day to day you will:

- Fabricate sign frames, lightboxes, pylon structures, brackets and mounting hardware
- MIG and TIG weld aluminum, mild steel and stainless steel to a high finish standard
- Read and interpret engineering drawings, shop drawings, specifications and cut lists
- Measure, mark out, cut, fold, drill, grind and lines to tolerance
- Assemble and trial-fit structures, including housings for illuminated and LED components
- Prepare completed work for surface finishing and dispatch
- Carry out quality checks against specification before sign-off
- Maintain a clean, safe and organised work area and comply with all WHS requirements

About you

- Proven MIG and TIG welding ability, particularly on aluminum
- Confident reading and working directly from technical drawings
- Solid attention to detail and pride in finish quality — signage is a visual product and welds are often seen
- Reliable, safety-focused, and comfortable working both autonomously and as part of a small team

- Previous experience in signage, sheet metal or architectural metal fabrication
- Forklift license, EWP (yellow card) and/or Construction Induction (White) Card
