About the Role

Western Australia's public transport system is renowned for its efficiency, cleanliness, and safety. The Public Transport Authority (PTA) seeks highly skilled and motivated individuals to join its team as Operational Train Technicians.

To meet the demands of METRONET expansions, including the Yanchep rail extension, Morley-Ellenbrook Line, Cockburn-Thornlie link, and Armadale to Byford line extension, we require experts who can learn the operational aspects of train operations and troubleshooting.

  • A keenness for following procedures and operating equipment according to correct protocols and instructions.
  • The skills to adapt quickly to changing circumstances and maintain composure under pressure.
  • The talent to use available information to solve problems effectively.

This is an ongoing recruitment process where successful applicants will be placed in the pool for 24 months. Initially, this selection process will be used to fill the current Railcar Driver Trainee vacancies, but it may also be used to appoint to similar positions within the agency over the next 24 months.

Becoming an Operational Train Technician offers numerous benefits, including:

  1. Fully paid training with an attractive remuneration package ($85,000 - $105,000 per year).
  2. 5 weeks annual leave.
  3. Uniform.
  4. Opportunities to grow through personal development and career pathways.
  5. Health and Wellbeing programs.
  6. Supportive Team Environment.
  7. Opportunity to join our Social Club offering savings and benefits all year round.
