As Australia's largest privately-owned compressed air provider, we deliver hire, sales, parts, and service nationwide. Partnering with world-class brands, we're trusted across construction, manufacturing, and industry to deliver reliability, quality, and service — every time.

We're proud of our heritage, our gear, and our reputation for getting the job done.

  • Be part of a close-knit workshop where teamwork and safety come first
  • Genuine career development pathways in a proudly Australian-owned company

The Role

As a Trades Assistant in our Tullamarine workshop, you'll be a key player in keeping our fleet and operations running efficiently. This role is about more than just workshop support — it's about helping Air Powered Services deliver on our promise of reliability to every customer.

You'll be responsible for:

  • Maintaining workshop tidiness and safety standards
  • Assisting with tool and compressor repairs alongside tradesmen
  • Checking in and inspecting returned hire equipment to ensure readiness for the next customer
  • Supporting the wider workshop team with hands-on help wherever it's needed

What You'll Bring

At Air Powered Services, we value attitude as much as experience. You don't need to be trade-qualified — just mechanically minded, reliable, and ready to learn.

  • Punctual, reliable, and able to work independently with initiative
  • A safety-first mindset and commitment to teamwork
  • Ability to read and understand technical documents
  • Basic computer and strong record-keeping skills
  • Reliable transport to and from our Tullamarine branch
