Job Description & How to Apply Below
Location: Newcastle

As our Plant & Tool Fitter, you will be kept busy servicing, maintaining and repairing light and medium machinery and plant equipment, which will also include scissor lifts and generators up to 100kva. After your repair task is completed, you’ll then get busy using electronic equipment to check, and test that machinery, so that it is certified safe and fit to be hired out to our customers.

Some of the machinery that you could get the chance to work on is engines, transmission systems, hydraulics, electronics, pneumatic, and parts of plant chassis/frames, such as tracks, wheels and booms. You will have the chance to service and repair anything from generators, compressors and concrete mixers to compacting machines (road rollers/plates), powered hand tools and disc cutters. You’ll never get bored, that’s for sure!

With your acute awareness of H&S compliance, you will carefully carry out safety inspections and checks, keeping comprehensive records of the work. As an experienced Plant & Tool Fitter, safety and quality will, of course, come naturally to you anyway. Your working hours will be Monday to Friday, 07:30hrs to 17:00hrs.
