Ready for long weekends?

Build quality Aussie-made trailers with GLT and enjoy a four-day work week, competitive pay and benefits, and the chance to do skilled work with a team you can count on.

About the Role

As an experienced Boilermaker/Welder at GLT, you’ll bring your trade skills into a hands-on workshop role where quality, precision, and pride in the finished product matter. You’ll interpret technical drawings and instructions to fabricate and assemble trailers and components to high-quality standards, working across processes such as MIG, TIG, and stick welding, cutting, grinding, polishing, pressing, and heat treatment in steel and/or aluminium.

If you’ve built your trade in mining, civil, heavy construction, or field environments and you’re ready for more routine, less travel, and a better balance outside work, this is a chance to bring your welding and fabrication skills into a stable workshop role without stepping back on quality or pride in the job.

In this role, you’ll:

- Work collaboratively and safely within a team environment.

- Read and interpret technical drawings to perform welding and fabrication tasks.

- Carry out welding duties (GMAW, TIG, Stick) along with cutting, grinding, and other fabrication processes on steel and/or aluminium.

- Ensure all work meets quality, specification, and safety requirements.

- Complete documentation accurately, including job cards, build records, and time cards.

What We’re Looking For





- A strong commitment to safety, quality workmanship, and teamwork.

- Trade qualification or demonstrated experience in welding and fabrication with steel and/or aluminium.

- Proven skills across MIG, TIG, and Stick welding processes.

- Solid ability to read, interpret, and work from technical drawings.

- A proactive, reliable, and positive approach to your work.

- A disciplined approach to your work area, tools, processes, and finished output.

- Clear, proactive communication and the ability to work well with others.

Desirable Skills and Experience

- Experience in transport, trailer manufacturing or heavy vehicle assembly

- Forklift or EWP licence

- Welding or fabrication skills and experience

Physical Requirements

- Ability to lift, carry, bend, repetition, and work in confined or awkward spaces.

- Comfortable working in workshop conditions (heat, noise, dust) with PPE provided.

- Competent in using hand tools, power tools, and equipment safely.

Why Join The Team?

- Build high-quality Australian-made products you can see, stand behind, and take pride in.

- Enjoy a four-day work week that supports better work-life balance, with more time at home and less disruption to life outside work.

- Receive competitive market wages, bonus opportunities, and practical employee benefits.

- Ongoing training and opportunities to develop your trade
