Swift Marine is a well-established Australian family-owned marine manufacturer based on the Gold Coast.
With a strong order book and ongoing government vessel contracts, we are looking for Aluminium Welders / Fabricators to join our growing production team.
You’ll be working on a variety of purpose-built aluminium vessels, including commercial, rescue, police and government boats — not repetitive production-line work.
The Role
Your work will include:
- MIG and TIG welding of aluminium
- Fabrication and assembly of aluminium boat structures
- Reading drawings and working from measurements
- Cutting, fitting and preparing aluminium components
- Fabrication of hulls, consoles, cabins, trailers and other marine components
- Working as part of an experienced boat-building team
What We're Looking For
We'd like to hear from you if you have experience in:
- Aluminium MIG or TIG welding
- General fabrication
- Boat building, marine fabrication, trailers or similar industries
- Using fabrication equipment, hand tools and power tools
- Producing neat, consistent and high-quality work
Boat-building experience is preferred but not essential.
If you're a good aluminium welder or fabricator from another industry, we are happy to provide training in marine construction.
We are looking for people who are reliable, take pride in their work and want a long-term position with a stable Australian manufacturer.
Why Work at Swift Marine?
- Full-time permanent position
- Competitive pay based on experience
- Regular overtime available
- Long-term government and commercial vessel contracts
- Interesting, varied fabrication work
- Modern Gold Coast manufacturing facility
- Supportive, experienced team
- Regular staff BBQs supplied by the owners
- Opportunity to develop your skills in specialised marine fabrication
Work Hours
Monday – Thursday: 6:30am – 3:00pm
Friday: 6:30am – 12:30pm
Enjoy an early finish every Friday.
