Be the last set of hands on every machine before it goes to work. You'll split your time between two jobs: bringing new machines to life on the test bay and fitting the accessories that make each build ready for the customer. Putzmeister is a world leader in concrete pumping. Our machines pour the concrete on Australia's biggest high-rise, infrastructure, tunnelling and mining projects. At our Altona workshop, we build, fit out and test each pump to a standard our customers rely on every day.
Key Responsibilities:
Testing and tuning
- Set and verify hydraulic pressures, flows and machine settings to spec
- Run full function tests on the boom, pumping, outrigger and control systems
- Hunt down leaks, defects and anything that isn't quite right
- Fault-find and fine-tune each machine for peak performance
- Complete test reports and handover documentation
Fit-out and final assembly
- Drill, grind, fabricate brackets and mount accessories to customer specifications
- Fit items such as toolboxes, pressure washers, pipe and hose racks, lighting, beacons, cameras, guards and anything else the customer has requested
- Make sure every fitting is solid, neat and finished to Putzmeister standard
Why you'll enjoy it
- Variety: no two builds are the same (Unless they are for the same customer), and your work moves between the test bay and the workshop floor
- Ownership: you'll see a machine through from fit-out to final sign-off
- Premium equipment: work on world-class German-engineered machinery
- A steady weekday roster in a clean, organised and purpose built workshop
- A supportive team of fitters, auto electricians and service technicians
About you
- Trade qualified in plant, hydraulic, diesel, heavy vehicle or mechanical fitting (or similar)
- Confident with hydraulics, and ideally experienced with heavy equipment
- A sharp eye for detail and a methodical approach to fault-finding
- Comfortable with hand and power tools, including drilling, grinding and mounting
- Proud of quality work and a safe, tidy workspace
- A clear communicator who works well with production and service teams
