About Flinders Port Holdings
Flinders Port Holdings own and operate Flinders Adelaide Container Terminal, the port of Port Adelaide as well as the six key regional ports of Port Giles, Port Lincoln, Wallaroo, Port Pirie, Klein Point and Thevenard.

We also provide integrated supply chain solutions through Flinders Warehousing and Distribution. Beyond ports, we deliver hydrographic survey services through HydroSurvey Australia.

Flinders Port Holdings is ranked as one of South Australia’s top 10 companies, with an annual turnover of more than $300 million. We employ over 650 people and indirectly support 24,000 jobs in South Australia.

Through our operations we facilitate over $25 billion in international trade annually and are the key platform for South Australian two-way trade in goods.

Role Overview

Flinders Port Holdings Civil and Construction team is experiencing an exciting period of growth. With major projects underway and continued investment in new equipment, we’re expanding our capability.

This growth has created an opportunity for a Civil Plant Operator to join our team. The Civil Plant Operator will contribute to the efficient and effective delivery of civil maintenance and civil capital projects across Flinders Ports sites.

Key Responsibilities

Support the existing civil team in the coordination and delivery of civil maintenance and project works on site;
Operating of in-house civil equipment including excavators, front end loader, skid steer, tipper truck, water truck, dozer and backhoe;
Delivery of civil maintenance and project work including pavement construction and repairs, earthworks, land preparation and general maintenance tasks;
Conduct daily pre-start inspections and basic maintenance of civil plant and equipment;
Promote safety by identifying hazards, managing contractors, and fostering a positive safety culture; and
Assist with manual labour and ground support tasks when not operating equipment.

About you

Your skills and experience will include:

Civil Construction trade qualifications or significant civil experience;
White Card and valid Driver’s Licence;
Essential licences: excavator, front end loader, HR or HC licence, skid steer (bulldozer and backhoe will be highly regarded);
Experience with civil maintenance activities and civil land development;
Punctual, reliable, proactive problem solver with strong communication skills and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team; and
Strong understanding of WHS practices, JSEAs, hazard identification, and incident reporting is essential.

Benefits

We care about our people – that’s why we offer a variety of benefits focussed on your wellbeing, that support your career and life outside of work, including:

Up to 8 paid hours per annum to volunteer
Up to 3 days per annum of Cultural Leave for First Nations employees
$299 annual health and wellbeing subsidy
Ongoing professional development opportunities
Supportive, motivated and fun team environment
An inclusive workplace that fosters diversity
Corporate Discounts on Private Health Insurance with Medibank
Uniforms and PPE Supplied
Impactful and engaging work
Training programs and opportunities to ensure your continued growth
Long-term career opportunities

Even if you don’t think you quite meet all the criteria, we’d still love to hear from you.

A pre-employment medical assessment (including drug and alcohol screening) is a requirement of this role, along with the ability to obtain and hold a Maritime Security Identification Card (MSIC).
