The Opportunity

We’re looking for a driven, experienced rope services technician to play a key role in expanding our advanced rope services footprint through the deployment of high technology rope inspection equipment.

This is more than a rope inspection role — it’s an opportunity to identify market opportunities, deploy leading-edge inspection solutions, and create real commercial impact in our advanced services business. You’ll work closely with our sales team, commercial manager and global advanced services team to turn opportunities into sustainable revenue.

If you enjoy building relationships, solving customer problems, and seeing your ideas turn into results, this role will give you the platform to do exactly that.

Key Responsibilities

Build and maintain strong, trusted relationships with key customers

Deploy leading-edge rope inspection solutions to provide customers with the most comprehensive rope condition analysis in the market

Work collaboratively with internal teams (services, sales, engineering) to develop value‑driven solutions to customer needs

Perform routine rope inspection and reporting work in-house and on-site to support existing customer needs





Utilise your experience in rope inspection methods to develop innovative solutions to support customer needs

Our ideal candidate would have the following skills & experience:

Proven experience in rope inspection as a Level 2 NDE technician or higher, preferably across multiple sectors (eg: mining, C&I;, O&G;)

A strong understanding of the methods of rope deterioration and their assessment against the relevant standards and discard criteria

Proficient in the use of Microsoft Word, Excel and other software (eg: NDT equipment) to analyse rope condition and compile reports

Strong communication and problem-solving skills

A customer-focused mindset

Ability to work with internal and external stakeholders to develop solutions

A desire to provide customers with leading-edge solutions to their rope inspection needs

Rigging and dogging qualifications would be beneficial but are not essential.

We offer more than just a title:

The opportunity to drive the growth of Bekaert Australia’s services business

Exposure to leading-edge rope inspection technology and equipment

A team-oriented, professional culture that values ownership and ideas
