Re.Group is an Australian-owned recycling and resource recovery company focused on creating a wasteless society — where resources that would otherwise become waste are recovered, reused and kept in circulation.

We operate recycling and resource recovery facilities across Australia, working with communities, government and industry to deliver practical solutions that create positive environmental and community outcomes.

We’re looking for a Maintenance Fitter to join our team at our Chinderah Materials Recovery Facility (MRF).

This isn’t a workshop where everything stays clean, shiny and politely waits for attention. It’s a busy working plant where equipment moves, wears and occasionally decides it has had enough — and that’s where you come in.

The opportunity

Working Monday to Friday, 5am–1pm, you’ll play an important role in keeping our Chinderah facility safe, reliable and running efficiently.

And yes, 5am is early — but finishing at 1pm in Chinderah has its advantages!

You’ll also enjoy:

- Permanent, full-time employment

- Competitive rates + allowances + overtime

- PPE supplied

- Career development and opportunities within Re.Group

- Employee Assistance Program

- Novated vehicle leasing

- On-site/street parking

- A team that values your ideas, not just your toolbox

- The opportunity to work in an industry making a genuine environmental difference

What you’ll be doing

You’ll help keep the Chinderah plant reliable, safe and operating at its best.

Your responsibilities will include:

- Carrying out preventative and reactive maintenance

- Diagnosing faults and completing breakdown repairs

- Fault finding across mechanical equipment and plant

- Identifying opportunities to improve equipment reliability and performance

- Supporting continuous improvement initiatives

- Working closely with operations, contractors and site management





- Ensuring maintenance activities are completed safely and to a high standard

- Maintaining accurate maintenance records and reporting issues as required

We don't just want someone who can fix the same problem every Tuesday.

If you see something that could be improved, we want you to speak up and, where possible, help us fix it properly.

You’ll be working closely with the operations team and other site stakeholders, so being able to communicate effectively is just as important as knowing your way around bearings, belts, motors and gearboxes.

About you

Experience in recycling, waste or a Materials Recovery Facility would be great, but it isn’t essential.

What matters more is that you’re practical, safety-minded, confident with fault finding and take pride in leaving equipment better than you found it.

Ideally, you’ll bring:

- Mechanical maintenance and fitting experience

- Robust mechanical fault-finding and diagnostic skills

- A strong commitment to safety

- Mechanical trade qualifications

- Current Forklift Licence and EWP ticket

- The ability to work effectively with operators, contractors and the wider site team

- A hands-on, can-do approach

- A willingness to get involved and address problems rather than walk past them

There may occasionally be weekend work or call-outs when required, however this is predominantly a Monday–Friday day-shift role.

Why join Re.Group?

At Re.Group, you’ll be part of a purpose-driven organisation working towards a wasteless society.

At Chinderah, you won’t disappear into a huge maintenance department. You’ll be close to the plant, close to the people operating it and able to see the direct impact of your work.

If you’re a fitter who enjoys solving problems, improving equipment and being trusted to get on with the job, we’d love to hear from you.
