AU$80 - AU$85 per hour

Location

QLD

Type

Full Time

Want a good rate, roster and a crew that actually know what they're doing. If that sounds better than what your doing then read on.

  • Worklife balance roster with a charter FIFO on an 8:6 roster
  • Stay close to home with a FIFO role in QLD
  • Long term job security + plenty of day to day variety

Why This One's Worth A Look

  • 8:6 roster, days and nights - built for an actual lifestyle, not just a paycheck
  • Charter FIFO from Brisbane or Sunshine Coast, or DIDO if you're local, all travel paid
  • Full camp with meals, accommodation and amenities sorted, you just show up
  • A tight crew of experienced tradies who take pride in the work, not just clocking hours

What You'll Actually Be Doing

Split your time between the workshop and a rotating stint underground:

  • Servicing, preventative and scheduled maintenance, component changeouts and plenty more in the maintenance workshop on the surface
  • Fault finding and breakdown response across a wide equipment range
  • One week in six as the dedicated underground breakdown fitter, rotating through the crew
  • Hands-on with Sandvik boggers, drills, trucks and more

Camp & Travel

Set up close to both the mine and the airstrip, so you're not wasting hours getting to and from site:

  • Single rooms with en-suites, comfortable and well looked after
  • Gym, wet mess, BBQ area and fatigues rooms on site
  • Themed meal nights and food that's actually good
  • Wi-Fi on site
  • Thursday to Thursday roster, charter flights or local DIDO, all travel covered

The Operation

An owner-operator mine in QLD, run by people who've been doing this a long time and do it properly:

  • Direct, well-run team with long-standing site knowledge
  • Culture built on doing the job right, not cutting corners
  • Safety and quality backed up in practice, not just on paper
  • Room to upskill across a broad mix of underground and surface gear

What You Need

  • Diesel trade qualification, no exceptions
  • Experience with underground hard rock mining equipment - Sandvik / Normet is a bonus
  • Solid diagnostics and breakdown response skills
  • Adaptable and ready to get stuck into whatever the shift throws at you
  • A safety-first mindset and the reliability to show up every swing
  • Willing to complete a national police check and pre-employment medical
