We’re not just hiring for skills, we’re looking for personality and dedication. If you’re a hands‑on problem solver who takes pride in restoring and repairing, this one’s for you.
About us

- Carry out site assessments and prepare detailed, accurate reports with photos and moisture readings
- Deliver restoration works like water extraction, drying, dehumidification, mould remediation and contents handling
- Attend make safes and carry out light repairs to protect the property
- Operate and monitor restoration equipment safely, following our WHS procedures
- Keep project managers and customers updated from first visit to sign off
- Jump on the after hours roster for make safes and scheduled weekend work, paid accordingly

- Victorian Working with Children Check, or happy to apply
- Full Australian working rights
Nice to have: IICRC certification (WRT, ASD, AMRT) or equivalent. Don’t have it yet? We’ll help you get there.
Why join us
- Competitive salary package that reflects your skills and experience
- Company vehicle and fuel card, plus a laptop, phone and tablet so you’ve got what you need
- Paid after hours and weekend work, on a fair roster so you’re not on call 24/7

- Room to grow into senior and supervisor roles as the team keeps growing
- A supportive team that works hard and still has a laugh, with regular team catch ups and events
