Qualified Plumber | Drainage Plumber | Local Work | Monthly RDO | Geelong

n

Maybe you're an experienced drainage plumber looking for a better workplace.

n

Or perhaps you've spent years in general plumbing and you're ready to specialise in something different.

n

Either way, if you enjoy quality work, being part of a great team and taking pride in what you do, we'd love to talk.

n

If you're a qualified plumber with the right attitude, we'll teach you everything you need to know.

n

Why Harrington Drainage?

n

We're a growing residential drainage company based in Geelong, specialising in drainage for Victoria's leading volume builders.

n

Our reputation has been built on quality workmanship, professionalism and strong relationships—and we know none of that happens without excellent people.

n

Our Core Values are simple:

n

They're not just words on a wall—they guide the way we work every day.

n

What Makes Us Different?

n

We don't just invest in machinery—we invest in people.

n

Our team receives regular coaching, structured career development, recognition programs and genuine support from experienced leaders. Many of our apprentices have built long-term careers with us, progressing into leadership positions because we're committed to developing people—not just filling jobs.

n

n

n

Who We're Looking For

- Pride in your workmanship
n
- Reliability
n
- A willingness to learn and continually improve

Why This Role Is Different

n

We know plenty of companies can offer you a job.

n

Some may offer a vehicle. Some may offer slightly higher pay.

n

What we're offering is something that's much harder to find.

n

A professionally run business.

n

Clear systems.

n

Supportive leadership.

n

A team that genuinely enjoys working together.

n

We hire for culture just as much as capability because we believe great people build excellent businesses.
