Put your hydraulic expertise to work in a permanent role where you'll be trusted to solve problems, work with a great team and become the senior technical person in the workshop.
Opportunity
If you're an experienced Hydraulic Fitter who enjoys hands-on work, solving technical problems and being part of a team where people genuinely get along, this could be an opportunity worth considering.
You'll join an established hydraulics business with a team focused on delivering quality hydraulic solutions to customers across a range of industries.
The team is growing and the business continues to invest in creating a workplace built around trust, respect and engaged employees.
Schedule
Monday to Thursday (7:00 AM to 3:30 PM) | Friday early finish at 1:30pm.
The Role
Working as a Hydraulic Fitter, you'll be responsible for assembling, testing, repairing and servicing hydraulic components and assemblies in the workshop.
You'll work with:
Hydraulic cylinders, pumps, valves, power packs and actuators
Hydraulic hoses and fittings
Hydraulic assemblies and components
Testing and troubleshooting hydraulic systems
Hose manufacture and crimping
Pump and valve testing and repairs
Assembly and compliance documentation
Identifying and resolving component issues
Supporting internal sales teams with technical advice

The role will also increasingly involve customer site work, including installation, testing and commissioning.
This is not a breakdown-focused role.




You'll have the opportunity to use your technical skills both in the workshop and on planned customer site work.
Ideal Candidate
You'll ideally bring previous experience as a Hydraulic Fitter, although strong candidates from a Diesel Fitter, Diesel Mechanic or similar mechanical background with solid hydraulic experience will also be considered.
You'll need:
Trade qualifications as a diesel fitter, mechanic or hydraulics fitter
At least 12 months of post-trade experience is required; however, we would consider a 4th year apprentice.
Hands-on hydraulic experience
Experience with hydraulic cylinders, pumps and/or valves
Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
The ability to work independently
A practical, hands-on approach
A current driver's licence
Experience with hydraulic hose assembly, installation, testing and commissioning will be highly regarded.
A forklift and MR licence would also be advantageous.
Just as importantly, you'll be someone who works well with others.
The team is young, hardworking and enjoys having a laugh, so we're looking for someone reliable, approachable and engaged - without the big ego.
