Newcastle Maitland Hunter, Australia Mader Group Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

Digger & Drill Fitters – Hunter Valley, Gunnedah & Mudgee

The Hunter, Gunnedah and Mudgee pits don't slow down, and neither do we. We're chasing Digger and Drill Fitters – and heavy plant specialists – who know their way around Komatsu, Hitachi, Liebherr and CAT gear and are ready to keep the machines turning in some of NSW's busiest mining hubs.

With Mader, you'll get your own black specialist services ute, be trusted with major component change-outs and rebuilds, and work across sites where every fitter counts. If you've cut your teeth on the gear in the Valley, you'll know how important reliability and skill are – that's exactly what we value too.

What's on the table:

  • Solid pay packages that reflect your experience
  • 12% super on every hour worked – nothing left behind
  • Roster flexibility – whether you're chasing steady weeks in the Hunter or swing work out Gunnedah way
  • Career development that sticks – step into leadership or even international gigs
  • Long-term stability – with loyalty rewarded through reviews and service milestones
  • Access to perks like 3 Gears adventure trips, salary sacrificing and health cover discounts
  • Employee of the Year trips – past stops include Rome, Ibiza and Kilimanjaro
  • Your own black specialist services ute
  • Paid travel, inductions and training days to keep you site-ready
  • OEM training and the chance to add high-risk licences to your ticket
  • Variety – rebuilds, diagnostics and planned change-outs on diggers & drills

What you'll need in your kitbag:

  • Cert III in Mobile Plant Technology (Australian recognised)
  • Certificate of Proficiency – Automotive Mobile Plant
  • 5+ years' post-trade experience on diggers, drills and mining machinery
  • Current Australian work rights and valid C Class licence
  • National Police Clearance

If you're proud of your trade, back your skills on the tools, and want a company that values the fitters who keep NSW's mining backbone running – Mader's got your spot.
