Registered Plumbers / Leak Detection Technicians – Melbourne North & West
About Us
1300 FINDLEAK is Australia’s leading specialist in forensic plumbing diagnostics. We don’t guess where leaks are; we use advanced, non-invasive technology to pinpoint concealed water, gas, and structural ingress issues. Due to massive growth across Victoria, we have an immediate opportunity for two (2) Registered Plumbers to join our elite team as specialized Leak Detection Technicians.
The Opportunity & Location
We are specifically seeking candidates based in the North and West metropolitan suburbs of Melbourne to service our growing portfolio of residential, commercial, and strata assets in these regions.
This is a full-time position offered on casual rates for the first 6 months at $45.00 per hour, with significant overtime and weekend work available for those looking to boost their earnings. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to transition to a permanent full-time package upon review.
