Full Job Description

A gun on the manual machines? From excavator pins to 16-tonne jobs on the Elgamill — this one's for you.

Some machinists are at their best on the manual machines and want to stay there. If that's you, this is the job. The workshop runs on people who can set up a lathe or mill, read the drawing, hold the tolerance and hand over work they're proud of — without being babysat.

THE VARIETY IS THE JOB

One day you're knocking out a quick set of excavator pins. The next, the 8m x 850mm swing lathe is maxxed out on a long shaft — or we're getting a crane in to load a 16-tonne job onto the Elgamill. One-offs, repairs and small batches for mining, civil, industrial and food processing customers — not production runs that bore you stupid.

And you see jobs through from start to finish. We handle the lot in-house: crack repairs and fabrication, through to the final machining and fitting, and hydraulic cylinder honing on the 6.5m-stroke Sunnen hone. You're not a cog passing parts down a line — you're the tradesman who takes a wrecked component and hands back a working one.

We also do shutdown fitting runs — heading out to a customer's site to assemble and fit the components we've machined or repaired. There's something different about seeing the parts you made bolted in and running.

WHY YOU'LL WANT THIS JOB

- Real work for serious customers — the part has to be spot-on first time, and the customer is waiting on it.

- Big machines, big jobs — lathes to 8m between centres, horizontal borers, mills with a 6m table, 200t press, the Elgamill, the Sunnen hone. If you like serious gear, you'll be at home here.

- Welding and fabrication experience is highly advantageous — our jobs run from weld repair through to finished fit, so the more of the process you can own, the more valuable you are.

- You'll be told what good looks like, then left to get on with it. We back our tradies.

PAY

Pay depends on experience and performance — same base as our fitter/machinist rates, and everything's negotiable. Tell us your number when you apply and we'll have a straight conversation about it.

You'd report to Damian, our Ops Manager. Metro's owned by Pat O'Hara and Karl Hansen, who are hands-on in the business — in the trenches with the boys.

REQUIREMENTS

- Trade qualified machinist (Australian-recognised, or overseas trade with full local recognition)

- Right to work in Australia

- Current driver's licence

- Deep experience on manual lathes and mills — set-ups, tolerances, materials

- Reads engineering drawings independently

NICE TO HAVE

- MIG and stick welding / fabrication experience

- Vertical turret lathe / horizontal borer / bed mill (Elgamill-type) experience

- Hydraulic cylinder repair or honing experience

- Any tickets you've already got — welding, forklift, EWP

REFERRAL BONUS

Know a gun machinist? If we hire the person you refer and they stick three months, we'll drop you $500.

Apply directly at jobsmetromachining.com (takes about 10 minutes — attach your resume and tell us why), or email your CV and a few lines on why you're the one to [email protected].

Pay: $36.00 – $46.00 per hour
