We're looking for a practical, mechanically minded technician to join our field service team.

About the Role

This is a hands‑on, wide-ranging field service position suited to someone with strong mechanical aptitude who enjoys problem‑solving, working with tools and getting out on the road.

You'll work across different customer sites, from smaller workshops to large industrial facilities.

Your responsibilities will include:

Training will be provided in our specialist inspection and testing procedures.

About You

We're particularly interested in candidates with a background in mechanical fitting, industrial maintenance, plumbing or other relevant mechanical trades.





You don't need previous air receiver inspection experience. We're looking for the right mechanical skills, practical attitude and willingness to learn.

Ideally, you'll bring:

- A mechanical trade qualification or demonstrated relevant hands‑on mechanical experience

- Confidence using hand tools, power tools and mechanical equipment

- An understanding of mechanical systems, fittings, valves or pipework

- Strong attention to detail and a safety‑conscious approach

- The ability to troubleshoot and solve practical mechanical problems

- Good communication and customer service skills

- The ability to work independently and manage your day effectively

- Basic computer literacy and the ability to complete service reports

- A current driver's licence

- Willingness to travel, including regular overnight regional work

Experience with compressed air systems, air receivers, pneumatic equipment, plumbing or industrial maintenance will be highly regarded.

What We Offer

- $35–$45 per hour + super, depending on qualifications, experience and capability

- Permanent full‑time employment, 38 ordinary hours per week

- Specialist training and development in air receiver inspection and testing

- A varied role across different industries and work environments

- The opportunity to develop technical skills in a specialised industry

- A supportive, family‑owned business with a growing team

- Long‑term career opportunities as the business continues to expand

Interested?

If you're a mechanically minded tradesperson looking for something different from a traditional workshop or maintenance role, we'd love to hear from you.

We value reliability, initiative, quality workmanship and a willingness to learn just as much as previous industry experience.
