Excavator Operator – 33–35T | Underwood
We’re looking for an experienced and versatile Excavator Operator for a long-term civil project at Underwood.
This is not bulk earthworks or GPS work. It’s tight, technical excavation where you need to be productive while constantly aware of what's happening around you.
The project has multiple excavators, , and we need someone comfortable moving between machines and different tasks as the job requires.
The work includes
- Trenching alongside an existing road
- Excavating in extremely tight working areas
- Loading spoil directly into trucks
- Working around existing services and overhead powerlines
- Assisting the pipe crew to get pipes laid correctly
- Moving shoring regularly as the trench progresses
- Excavation and preparation around pits
- Working alongside cranes installing pits and pipe
- Occasional loading of materials at the local yard
There is no GPS setup, so we're looking for someone who genuinely knows their machine and can work accurately and efficiently without relying on GPS.
You need to be able to read the job in front of you, communicate with the pipe crew and keep production moving without compromising safety.
What we're looking for
- Strong civil excavator experience
- Excellent trenching experience
- Confident on 30T+ excavators
- Experience working in confined/tight civil sites
- Comfortable working around shoring, pipe crews, trucks, cranes and services
- Versatile enough to jump between machines and tasks
- Productive operator who doesn't sacrifice safety for speed
- Relevant Excavator ticket and White Card
- Have a referee we can call to confirm your ablity
There is plenty happening in a very small footprint, so good spatial awareness and machine control are essential.
If you're an experienced civil operator who enjoys the more technical side of excavation rather than simply shifting dirt all day, we'd like to hear from you.
