Commission brand-new underground mining gear on 4 days on 3 days off with 3-day weekends. Mechanical trade ticket required. Kenwick, no FIFO.

  • $68-$73/hr + super - 4x10s Tue-Fri, 3-day weekends
  • Brand-new underground OEM gear in a local Kenwick workshop
  • LV mechanics welcome, with full underground equipment training

A global mining OEM is expanding its Perth-based workshop and is looking for Pre-Delivery Technicians to join its afternoon shift crew. The team prepares and commissions new equipment for major WA mining operations.

This role is 100% workshop-based. You'll prepare, inspect and commission brand-new underground mining equipment in a clean, structured OEM environment, with the right tooling, procedures and experienced trades around you.

The Opportunity
This is a stable, long-term role working four 10-hour shifts from Tuesday to Friday. That gives you a three-day weekend every week, plus your days free, without FIFO or camp life.

  • $68.00 - $73.00 per hour + super
  • 4 x 10-hour shifts, Tuesday to Friday (2:00pm - 12:00am)
  • Three-day weekends, every week
  • Temp-to-perm, with long-term opportunity to grow internally
  • Days free for appointments, training or family, and no peak-hour traffic either way
  • OEM training and development to grow your skillset
  • Local workshop with OEM tooling, structured bays and a strong safety culture

The Role
You'll be hands-on preparing and commissioning new underground Load & Haul and drills machinery in a purpose-built OEM facility.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Pre-delivery inspections (PDI) on new equipment
  • Fit-out, testing and commissioning of machines before site delivery
  • Mechanical, hydraulic and electrical checks
  • Installing accessories, guarding, lights, suppression systems and site-specific modifications
  • Fault-finding, quality inspections and sign-off documentation

What You'll Need

  • Australian Mechanical trade qualification (LV, HD or HRT)
  • Entry-level, experienced and dual-trade backgrounds are all considered
  • Light vehicle mechanics do well here. Fit-out, diagnostics and the quality focus transfer directly, and full training on underground equipment is provided
  • Exposure to mobile plant, underground equipment or heavy vehicles is highly regarded
  • Strong mechanical aptitude and attention to detail
  • Pride in producing high-quality, compliant work
  • Comfortable working a consistent afternoon shift roster
  • Ability to pass a pre-employment medical and D&A test

Why This Role?
This is a real chance to get your foot in the door with a major global mining OEM, on a roster that keeps your weekends free and your days your own.

You'll work on brand-new mining equipment in a clean, modern workshop. You'll get OEM exposure, structured upskilling and clear long-term career pathways, with no FIFO or site pressure.
