If you’re a skilled Line Borer who takes pride in precision work, wants top‑tier equipment, and values steady, long‑term employment — this role is worth a closer look.
WesTrac is one of the world’s largest authorised Caterpillar dealers, and we’re growing our Field Service Line Boring team based out of Tomago NSW, supporting both workshop and site-based machining work.
You’ll be backed by a strong safety culture, modern tooling, and a business that genuinely invests in its trades.
Why This Role Stands Out
Top rates for the right experience – up to $56.55/hr + OT at $84.83/hr
Permanent, full-time work with consistent hours
Brand-new line boring trucks fitted with industry-leading equipment
Mix of field service and high-volume workshop boring
Work on large Caterpillar and heavy mobile equipment
Strong team culture with experienced trades around you
Clear pathways for progression within Australia’s largest CAT dealership
The Work You’ll Be Doing
This is hands-on, technical line boring work — not a mass-production role.
You’ll be responsible for:
Onsite and workshop line boring and repairs
Operating line boring equipment and ID welders (Hoffman, Triangle)
Reading and working from engineering drawings and tolerances
Precision machining to restore critical component alignment
Problem-solving with workshop leaders and fellow trades
Maintaining a high safety standard at all times
Delivering quality workmanship that meets time and customer expectations
Roster & Hours
Monday to Friday - 48-hour week
EARLY FINISH ON FRIDAYS!
Roster: 5 Days ON 2 Off X 2, then 5 Nights on 2 Off X 2
What We’re Looking For
You’re a trade-qualified machinist or fitter who knows line boring and takes pride in doing the job right.
Ideally, you’ll have:
Certificate III in Engineering – Mechanical Trade with post-trade experience in line boring.
Proven post-trade line boring experience
Experience in heavy equipment, mining or earthmoving
Ability to work autonomously and as part of a team
Strong safety mindset and reliability
MR licence (desirable, or willingness to obtain)
CAT equipment experience (highly regarded, not essential)
A practical, no‑nonsense approach and “get it done properly” attitude
Why Join WesTrac?
12 weeks paid parental leave + income protection
Strong job security with long‑term career pathways
Flexitime, RDOs & purchased leave (up to 5 weeks p.a.)
Training & career progression via the WesTrac Institute
Fitness Passport (family included) + health & wellbeing support
600+ retail, travel & lifestyle discounts + CAT tool discounts
Refer a mate & earn up to $3,000
Free parking, onsite café & extra perks at select sites
Relocation assistance for eligible candidates
We invest heavily in your development, offering access to our in‑house RTO(50737), dedicated learning pathways, and hands‑on experience with the latest Cat® technology and future‑focused capabilities. As one of the world’s largest authorised Cat® dealers, you’ll be part of an industry leader shaping what’s next in mining and construction.
