The roster

Standard hours are Monday 7:00am-3:00pm and Tuesday to Friday 7:00am-3:30pm, with some flexibility available.

There is also the option to work towards a monthly RDO or 9-day fortnight, alongside regular overtime across mornings, afternoons and weekends.

The role

Working predominantly in the field, you'll be responsible for managing jobs across various customer locations.

Your day-to-day will include:
