Experienced or always wanted to know your way around a drill rig? Can you follow a hydraulic line and use a greasy wrench like it’s second nature? You live for the sound of machinery running right, and you take real pride in getting gear back up and running when others can’t.

Itch is recruiting for Mechanical, Hydraulic, Diesel or Drill Fitters who have fault finding or commissioning skills and know how to keep round diamond drilling equipment performing at its best.

THE GIG

This is a hands-on role working on state-of-the-art underground diamond drill rigs with a solid team of skilled tradespeople.

  • Completing logs and reports accurately and on time
  • Working alongside other fitters and trades to repair and commission equipment
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
  • Permanent Australian working rights
  • Australian trade qualification
  • Strong hydraulic skills, including experience with compressors, hoses and valves
  • Ability to inspect drill masts, feed systems and rod handling equipment
  • Experience servicing and maintaining drill rigs is highly desirable
  • C Class driver’s licence
  • National Police Clearance issued within the last 6 months
  • Ability to pass a pre-employment medical and D&A screening
WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT
  • $70.00 flat casual hourly rate, depending on experience
  • Monday to Friday roster, 45 hours per week on day shift
