- Conducting in-process quality checks with micrometers, gauges, and other precision measuring tools
- Performing machine adjustments, tool changes, and maintenance to ensure optimal performance
- Collaborating with workshop team members to troubleshoot and deliver on deadlines
- Maintaining a clean, safe, and organised workspace in line with HMG safety standards

What We’re Looking For

- Trade-qualified CNC Machinist (Certificate III in Engineering – Mechanical Trade or equivalent)
- Proven CNC machining experience — programming, setting, and operating
- Ability to confidently operate multiple machines (lathes and mills)
- Experience working with large or complex components to close tolerances
- Strong understanding of G-code and CNC control systems
- CAD/CAM software knowledge (highly desirable)
- Skilled in precision measurement and quality assurance checks
- Ability to work independently with a proactive, problem-solving mindset
- Reliable, safety-conscious, and team-oriented
- Current driver’s licence and reliable transport
- Ability to pass a pre-employment medical and drug & alcohol screening

Why You’ll Love Working Here

- 38 hours per week + overtime
- Access to well-equipped CNC workshop facilities
- Work on diverse and challenging projects across mining, transport, and energy industries
- Supportive and safety-first team environment
