- Current driver's licence
- Strong understanding of site safety and quality requirements
- Plastic fabrication experience (tanks,



vessels, etc.) highly regarded
- Trade qualification in polymer plastics, pipefitting, boilermaking, or a related discipline is advantageous
- NSW WorkCover high risk licences (forklift, EWP, excavator, dogging) are a bonus

What we're looking for in a person

- Careful, accurate work with consistently high standards
- Valuable communicator who works well in a team
- Organised and able to manage their own workload
- Practical problem solver
- Positive attitude and attention to detail

What we offer
