Lonsdale, South Australia Hays | Trades & Labour Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

Hays currently seek qualified tradespeople across multiple disciplines to support a growing portfolio.

Calling All Tradespeople - Fitters, Boilermakers, Painters, Mechanics & Welders

Skilled Trades Wanted for Ongoing Local Work - With Scope for Remote Assignments

As a recruitment partner to many of Australia's most reputable heavy industry contractors, we're currently seeking qualified tradespeople across multiple disciplines to support a growing portfolio of opportunities.

This is an ideal time for experienced tradespeople who want the stability of local work or seek the appeal of remote opportunities to register their interest.

Whether you're a mechanical fitter, boilermaker, industrial painter, diesel mechanic, or welder, we're keen to connect you with work that suits your lifestyle, skill set, and career goals.

About the Roles

We're recruiting for multiple trade roles, each offering a variety of hands-on tasks and involvement input on projects large and small:

  • Mechanical Fitters
  • Focused on pump and valve maintenance, shutdowns, and workshop rebuilds. You'll be working on both preventative and reactive maintenance tasks across industrial sites.
  • Boilermakers & Welders
  • Responsible for structural fabrication, chute rebuilds, and heavy mobile & fixed equipment repairs. Your work will contribute directly to the safety and performance of critical infrastructure.
  • Industrial Painters
  • Involved in surface preparation and protective coating applications. You'll help extend the life of industrial assets through corrosion control and finishing work.
  • Diesel, Truck and LV Mechanics
  • Servicing and repairing earthmoving and heavy vehicles, ensuring machinery operates efficiently and safely across a range of environments.

These roles are primarily local, with periodic travel opportunities available for those seeking a variety of locations and job scope.

What You'll Need to Succeed

  • Trade qualifications and licences relevant to your discipline
  • Experience in mining, industrial, civil, or large workshop environments
  • A strong safety mindset and the ability to work independently or in a team
  • Additional tickets such as Working at Heights, Confined Space, or HR Licence are highly regarded
  • Equally important is to bring a genuine "Can Do Spirit" and "Honour Your Trade" in your work.

What's in It for You?

  • Competitive hourly rates + allowances
  • Ongoing local work with the option for remote assignments
  • PPE and training provided
  • Supportive team culture and career development pathways
  • Exposure to diverse projects and work environments

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • A strong team culture built on respect and collaboration
  • Flexible work arrangements and family-friendly policies
  • Opportunities for career development and internal mobility
  • A wide variety of projects across mining, civil, and industrial sectors
  • National reach with a local focus-giving you stability and scope

Ready to Take the Next Step?

If you're a skilled tradesperson looking for consistent work with room to grow, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply now or reach out directly to discuss how we can align your next role with your career goals.
