Mechanical Fitters Wanted – Depot Work | Immediate Starts | Sydney

Swetha International is recruiting qualified Mechanical Fitters to join a large rail and heavy-industry upgrade program supporting Sydney Trains operations.

This is not short shutdown work.

We’re building a dedicated production team for a program involving rolling stock upgrades, mechanical system renewals, safety equipment installation, and large-asset modifications.

If you want stable depot-based work with long-term security — this is your prospect.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be part of a structured technical team delivering:

- Mechanical maintenance, upgrades and modification work

- Removal and installation of mechanical components and assemblies

- Fit-off, alignment and adjustment of equipment

- Supporting equipment change-outs and system upgrades

- Working from drawings, procedures and technical specifications

- Reassembly and reinstatement of panels, covers and fittings

- Working in depot environments including confined spaces

- Following established procedures, scopes and safety systems

This is hands-on mechanical work on large assets — not workshop-only or construction site hopping.

What we need from you

- Strong mechanical fitting and installation experience

- Ability to interpret drawings and follow technical procedures

- Safety-first mindset

What’s in it for you

Immediate and staged starts available

- Opportunity to remain ongoing after initial project phases

- Supported onboarding and compliance assistance

This is one of the rare opportunities to secure long-term mechanical work on major fleet upgrade programs without chasing shutdowns.
