We help keep Australia's exploration rigs drilling by manufacturing high-quality drill rods and associated components. Our brand is well regarded throughout the industry for delivering quality products.
We're a down-to-earth, close-knit team that values reliability, teamwork and taking pride in what we do. As a growing manufacturing business, we're continually investing in better equipment, processes and ways of working.
About the Role
We're looking for a reliable and motivated CNC lathe and mill operator to join our production team in Henderson.
Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
- Operating CNC lathes using established programs and procedures.

- Monitoring tooling condition and assisting with tool changes.
- Maintaining consistent production output while meeting quality standards.
- Keeping your work area clean, organised and safe.
- Working with the team to identify opportunities to improve productivity and reduce waste.
You'll be working across a mix of repeat production runs and smaller batches, so being organised, adaptable and able to maintain a good pace will be important.
About You
You take pride in producing quality work, pay attention to detail and enjoy being part of a productive team.
- Confidence using measuring equipment such as verniers, micrometres and gauges.
- The ability to follow work instructions and carry out basic quality checks.
- A good understanding of workshop safety practices.
- A reliable work ethic and a willingness to learn.
- The ability to work independently while contributing to a close-knit team.
Experience with Mazak CNC machines will be highly regarded but is not essential.
You don't need to be a qualified machinist to succeed in this role. We're more interested in your practical experience, attitude, attention to detail and willingness to do a good job.
