About the role

Are you a highly skilled maintenance fitter with experience within the FMCG industry?

Your new company 
My client is one of Australia's largest food manufacturers, operating a highly automated meat processing facility supplying products to domestic and international markets. With a strong focus on safety, reliability, and continuous improvement, they continue to invest heavily in their people, equipment, and operations.
This is a well-run site where maintenance is valued, systems are structured, and tradespeople are trusted to focus on proactive maintenance rather than constant firefighting. 

Your new role
Working within an experienced maintenance team, you will support modern production and processing equipment in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
Your responsibilities will include:

  • Preventative and breakdown maintenance on production equipment
  • Electrical fault-finding on PLC-controlled systems
  • Working with motors, VSDs, sensors, and control circuits
  • Minimising downtime and improving equipment reliability
  • Supporting continuous improvement initiatives
  • Maintaining documentation and adhering to safety standards
What you'll get in return 
  • A Grade Electrical Licence
  • Ideally, 3+ years' experience within FMCG manufacturing (Food, Meat, Poultry, Dairy, Beverage, Packaging or Pharmaceutical)
  • Strong electrical fault-finding and troubleshooting skills
  • Experience with automated production equipment and PLC systems
  • Proactive approach with a strong focus on safety and reliability
What you need to do now 
If you're a proven Maintenance Electrician looking for your next challenge and want to lead a large-scale manufacturing operation where your decisions genuinely influence performance, reliability and business outcomes, apply now or contact Keanu White on 0490440830 or Keanu.White@hays.com.au
