About us

Dunsteel Engineering is a structural steel fabrication and installation business based in the Moss Vale, delivering commercial projects across Sydney. Our workshop runs a full processing line and we install what we make — so when plant goes down, it's felt immediately.

We're creating a new role to take ownership of that plant properly, rather than fixing things as they break.

The role

You'll be the person responsible for everything mechanical in our facility and across our mobile plant fleet. That means:

- Building and running a preventive maintenance schedule — not just reacting to breakdowns

- Mechanical, hydraulic and pneumatic maintenance and fault-finding across processing plant, conveyors and roller tables, saws, drills, materials handling and compressed air

- Maintaining our mobile plant: forklifts, EWPs, mini crawler crane, welding plant and generators

- Keeping our registered plant compliant — overhead cranes, lifting gear, inspection and certification records

- First-line diagnosis on CNC plant and managing the OEM service relationship when specialist support is needed

- Managing external contractors — electrical, crane inspection, OEM service

- Reducing unplanned downtime.

This is a genuine ownership role. You'll set the system up the way you think it should run,



and you'll have the budget and the authority to do it.

What you'll bring

Essential:

- Trade qualification — Certificate III in Engineering (Mechanical Trade), Fitter/Machinist, Maintenance Fitter, Plant Mechanic, or Heavy Vehicle/Mobile Plant Mechanic

- Solid hands-on background maintaining industrial plant, mobile plant or heavy machinery

- Strong mechanical fault-finding — hydraulics, pneumatics, drives, bearings, gearboxes

- The discipline to run a maintenance schedule and keep records, not just turn spanners

- Current driver's licence

Highly regarded, but we'll train the right person:

- Experience with CNC processing plant — beam lines, drill lines, plasma or laser cutting, band saws

- Conveyor and materials handling systems

- Basic PLC familiarity and the ability to read electrical and hydraulic schematics

- Forklift, EWP or crane tickets

- Any electrical qualification or restricted electrical licence

- Experience supervising or mentoring a trade assistant or apprentice

What we offer

- Permanent full time, day shift Monday to Friday

- Genuine autonomy and a direct line to the leadership team

- Support to get any tickets or training you need

Applicants must have full working rights in Australia.
