Trades & Services Jobs in Australia 

We recruit across a broad range of trade and technical disciplines. Electrical roles include electricians and electrical technicians across commercial, industrial, and site-based environments. Mechanical trades include fitters and turners, boilermakers, and diesel mechanics. We also place HVAC and refrigeration technicians, plumbers, painters, welders, and multi-trade maintenance workers. At the support level, we recruit trades assistants and maintenance coordinators who work alongside qualified tradespeople on construction sites, in manufacturing facilities, and in facilities management contexts.

We recruit nationally, with particular activity in regions where major industries drive demand for trades labour, Queensland's resources corridor including Gladstone, Mackay, and Townsville; Western Australia's Pilbara and Goldfields regions; South Australia's manufacturing belt; and Victoria's industrial suburban areas. Metropolitan roles exist too, particularly in facilities maintenance and commercial construction, but trades candidates who are open to regional and site-based work will typically find the widest range of opportunities.

Requirements depend on the trade and the role. Licensed electrical work requires a current electrical licence for the relevant state. Gasfitting, plumbing, and refrigeration work similarly require state-specific licences. Boilermakers and welders may need to hold a welding certification to relevant Australian Standards. For mining and resources site work, a current Construction Induction White Card is typically mandatory, and some sites require additional site-specific safety inductions. Our consultants will always tell you what's required before you apply so there are no surprises.

Yes. We recruit across all engagement types. Casual and labour-hire arrangements are common in manufacturing, logistics, and facilities maintenance. Fixed-term contracts are the standard for project-based construction and resources work, often with set roster arrangements. Permanent positions are available through some of our long-term clients, particularly in facilities management and maintenance roles. If you have a preference, our consultants can filter opportunities accordingly.

Yes. A portion of our trades roles are site-based, including positions in mining, resources, and major civil construction projects. Some of these operate on FIFO or DIDO rosters, particularly for roles in remote or regional Queensland and Western Australia. If you're open to this type of work, registering with us and setting a job alert for your trade discipline is the best way to stay across relevant openings as they arise.

Yes. Trades assistant roles don't require a trade certificate, though a White Card and physical fitness are usually expected. These positions are a common entry point for people building experience alongside qualified tradespeople, and some of our clients actively prefer candidates who are partway through an apprenticeship or who have solid labouring experience in a relevant environment.
