We're partnering with a highly respected engineering and manufacturing business in Melbourne's south-east to recruit an experienced Fitter & Turner for a long-term opportunity. This role offers an immediate start, competitive hourly rates, consistent weekday hours, and a genuine pathway to permanent employment for the right person.
This is not a production-line role. You'll be joining a skilled workshop team where quality workmanship, safety, and teamwork are highly valued. The business is investing heavily in its operations and equipment, making this an excellent opportunity for someone looking for long-term stability and career security.
What's on Offer?
$42 to $47 per hour + Super
Temp-to-perm opportunity
Monday to Friday, 7:00am to 3:00pm
Supportive and highly experienced team
Strong safety-first culture
Ongoing investment in new machinery and workshop improvements
Long-term career opportunity with succession planning in place
The Role
Working within a busy manufacturing workshop, you'll be responsible for a combination of manual machining, CNC machining, fitting and assembly duties.
Your responsibilities will include:
Operating manual centre lathes and milling machines
Manual screw cutting and precision machining to close tolerances
CNC machine setup, operation and basic programming
Manufacturing and assembly of industrial cylinders and components
Material preparation and steel cutting
Quality inspections and testing of finished products
Workshop maintenance and machine upkeep
Following Lean Manufacturing and 5S methodologies
Maintaining a secure and organised work environment
The workshop operates across multiple functions, meaning you'll have the opportunity to work across machining, assembly and production activities rather than being confined to one area.
To be considered, you must have:
Australian-recognised Fitter & Turner trade qualification
Experience machining to close tolerances
CNC machining experience
Exposure to CNC programming and machine setup
Ability to read and interpret technical drawings
Strong commitment to workplace safety
Excellent reliability and attendance record
Highly Regarded
Whilst not essential, the following will be viewed favourably:
Forklift Licence (LF)
Overhead Crane Licence
Working at Heights certification
Experience within a Lean Manufacturing or 5S environment
Experience within engineering, manufacturing or industrial workshops
Who Will Succeed?
The technical skills are important, but the successful candidate will also be:
A genuine team player
Willing to learn and adapt
Safety-focused
Hands-on and proactive
Comfortable working within an experienced trades team
Looking for a long-term opportunity rather than a short-term contract
If you're an Australian Trade Qualified Fitter & Turner with strong manual machining experience and CNC exposure, we'd love to hear from you.
