Sick of FIFO but still want to work on serious underground gear?
This Neerabup workshop focuses exclusively on Sandvik underground drills, delivering OEM-standard strip, assess and rebuild work for major WA mining contractors and Tier one operations.

Purpose-built for drill rebuilds, component work, diagnostics and testing, this is a clean, structured environment run by a tight-knit team of experienced trades.

The opportunity & why apply?

Lock in a long-term workshop role close to home, working on world-class underground drill rigs with the right tooling, processes and support.

• Exclusive focus on Sandvik underground drills (DD, DL & DS series)
• Clean, organised workshop with OEM tooling & structured rebuild bays
• Supportive team culture with progression pathways into Leading Hand roles

The Role:

Your work will centre on rebuilding, repairing and testing underground drill rigs and drill components.

• Complete component work: booms, feeds, drifters, rod changers, cylinders, cradles, rotation units

• Work within a tight-knit crew committed to high standards and safety

What You'll Need:
