Job Description

If you want to join a team that is big enough to support you, but not too big that you’re just a number, then keep reading…

Stop chasing overdue invoices or breaking your back lifting heavy LVLs. Start enjoying company BBQs, job security, and a manageable workload.

We’re looking to recruit a couple new Maintenance Carpenters or general Handymans to join our Maintenance Operatives team.

About the role:

You'll be joining our Asset Services department led by workforce Operations Manager (and Port Supporter…) Paul Wightman. The team consist of a bunch of mixed trades backgrounds who undertake maintenance work across our core client groups including Defence, Childcares, Schools, Councils and Australia Post. Depending on your background and skills, a typical day might include patching a wall, hanging a door, tiling a splashback or topping up a sand pit.

Here are a few things we think will make you ideal for this role:

• Trade background in carpentry or joinery are preferred, but previous history of building maintenance is highly valued.
• You’re accountable for your work and complete jobs with a sense of pride.
• Hold a current drivers licence.
• Hold or be able to obtain a Police Clearance and Working with Children Check.
• Display good communication skills.

Although not essential, it would be great if you have:

• First Aid Certificate.
• Working at Heights Ticket.
• Elevated Work Platform Ticket.

Here are some reasons why we hope you'll love working for us:

• Company vehicle
• Optional working away opportunities
• Career advancement through to Project Supervision or Site Management
• Personal Bunnings discount card.
• Exclusive staff discounts at over 400+ retailers
• Onsite gym facility
• Discounted Health Insurance
• Training and development to support your career
• Peer recognition program
• Employee Assistance Program
• Salary sacrifice options
• Guest speakers to support personal interests – financial planning advice
• Job security
• Fundraising initiatives
• Staff events

And here are four reasons why we're afraid you might not:

• We use a bit of technology including for your timesheets, you don’t need to be a computer wiz but you’ll need to be prepared to learn a new system or two.
• If you're interested in large project carpentry or lots of work on construction sites, we have other roles for that, and our Maintenance Operative is not your ideal fit.
• If you're not prepared to roll up your sleeves and work as a team to get the job done, then this isn't the role for you.
• We rely on trust and independence, we're not into micro-management or hand holding. If you find it hard to take ownership and be held accountable, we're probably not the best choice for you.
