Trade company on a mine site — not a mining company.
Hinchcliff Plumbing runs the facilities maintenance contract at Newmont Cadia Valley Operations, 25 minutes from Orange. We're a local Central West trade business, not a mining outfit — which means you get the steady work and pay that comes with a major mine-site contract, without the FIFO roster, the 12-hour shifts, or living out of a donga.
Day starts at 6:30am on site. You're home for dinner.
The role
Permanent full-time maintenance tradesperson on the Cadia contract. You'll be part of the crew under Graeme (Site Supervisor), working across the site's buildings, amenities, water and sewer services, workshops and crib rooms.
Day to day:
- General building maintenance and minor repairs
- Carpentry, gyprocking, painting, floor repairs
- Reactive call-outs and scheduled preventative maintenance
- Working alongside our licensed plumbers on combined jobs (you won't be doing licensed plumbing work yourself)
- Pre-starts, JSEAs, permit-to-work — the mine-site discipline that comes with the territory
What we need from you
- Solid hands-on maintenance background — minimum 4 years, with references that stack up
- Comfortable across carpentry, gyp, painting, general repairs
- Drivers licence (essential)
- Able to pass a pre-employment medical and drug & alcohol test — Cadia is a Fitness-for-Work site
- Reliable, on time, no dramas
- Either holds a current Cadia induction or willing to complete one
Previous mine-site experience is a plus but not essential. We'll get you inducted and up to speed.
What you get
- $78,900 – $90,000 base depending on experience
- Company vehicle for the right candidate
- PPE and tools provided
- Steady work — same site, same crew, no chasing jobs around the region
- Orange-based with a 25-minute commute to site
- Real lifestyle hours — none of this 14-on-7-off business
