Lake Illawarra, New South Wales, Australia Ampcontrol Limited Full time $60,000 - $80,000 per year

We have a rare opportunity for an motivated individual to join our cable services facility and learn the end-to-end process of cable repairing and manufacturing.

As part of our team, we will encourage your ideas, support your ongoing development and career growth, and offer a collaborative environment – all aimed at helping you take your career to the next level.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

You will perform test, repair and fitting of various sized mining and industrial electrical cables in compliance with Australian Standards. This will involve working as part of an established workshop team and learning the end-to-end process of cable repair and manufacture.

Sounds simple? It will have its built-in challenges:

  • You will be working on a product that carries an electrical charge – you will need to produce quality work, every time.
  • You will be working with hand and cutting tools – so you will need to keep a sharp focus on your safety and attention to detail.
  • Our workshop can get quite busy – so sometimes you will be working to deadlines.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR:

We are looking for a Trades Assistant to work out of our Unanderra operation on a full-time basis. This is a role ideal for someone with good hand and tools skills. You will need to be reliable and available to work full time hours, looking for a long-term opportunity, and willing to train into a niche field.

  • Safety as a core value
  • NSW Drivers License
  • The ability to work diligently in a heavy industrial environment
  • Strong hand tool skills
  • High attention to detail
  • The ability to communicate effectively to colleagues and customers

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS:

At Ampcontrol, we believe great work deserves great rewards. When you join us, you'll have access to a wide range of benefits designed to support your wellbeing, lifestyle, and career growth, including:

  • Flexible work arrangements to suit your lifestyle
  • Paid parental leave to support your family
  • Salary packaging options to help you make the most of your income
  • Purchased leave for greater work-life balance
  • Discounted private health care
  • Wellbeing programs and employee discounts
  • Education assistance and career development support
