Description:
Who will you be working with?Join an Australian original-equipment manufacturer recognised for building heavy industrial products—large winches, cutter-suction dredgers, hydraulic power units and custom steel assemblies that end up on job sites across the country.
What are the benefits?
- See the whole build: From plate arriving to final test-run—you’ll understand how real machinery comes together.
- Hands-on influence: Your quick decisions directly affect production output.
- Career springboard: Perfect for a trade-qualified technician, production team-leader or procurement/logistics professional ready to step into broader coordination.
- Family-owned culture: We invest in people, provide mentorship, and celebrate collective wins.
What you’ll do
- Own the schedule for 15–30 simultaneous jobs (from $5 k standard products to $2 m one-offs). Track budgets, hours and critical-path dates in the ERP/Excel dashboard and flag issues early.
- Keep materials flowing. Liaise with laser-cutters, machine shops, painters and freight forwarders to lock in dates, chase late orders and fast-track urgent parts. Place POs when needed.
- Shop-floor presence. Walk the assembly line with the Assembly Manager, confirm what’s ready, what’s waiting and what needs re-sequencing. Update travellers and whiteboards on the run.
- Report to management. Summarise any job trending over budget or lead-time so customer comms can go out the same day. Suggest and implement recovery actions once approved.
What do you need?
- Practical manufacturing exposure —perhaps you’ve been on the tools, scheduled production runs, or wrangled supply chains.
- An eye for detail and the confidence to pick up the phone to secure answers and keep parts moving.
- Comfortable juggling multiple tasks in a busy workshop/office environment.
- Working knowledge of basic cost tracking and spreadsheets
- A proactive mindset—spot an obstacle, raise it early, help solve it.
- Australian Citizen and a current driver’s licence
