If you can MIG weld and you can fix things, we want to talk to you.

Sitemax is Australia’s go-to supplier of containment mesh and signage for construction and development sites — the stuff you see wrapping scaffolding and fencing on projects around the country. We’re based right here in Gympie.

Tight-knit team, hands-on, and we take pride in doing things properly, moving fast and looking after each other. We’re growing, and we need a capable set of hands on the floor.

What the job actually is:

About 60% maintenance and MIG welding. The rest is a genuine mix — getting orders out the door, runs to customer sites, and hands-on installs. No two days are the same.

• MIG welding steel — fabricating and repairing frames, brackets and fixtures, plus keeping the workshop plant in one piece. This is the bulk of your week.
• Keeping our plant and equipment running: routine checks, repairs, and getting ahead of problems before they stop production.
• Dispatching orders accurately.
• Pick-ups and deliveries to customer sites in the company vehicle.
• On-site installs — measuring, fitting and maintaining signage.
• Keeping the workshop and warehouse safe, tidy and sorted.
• Forklift operation — we’ll pay for your licence if you don’t have it.

What you need

• Confident MIG welding on steel, working unsupervised.
• Current driver’s licence (essential)
• Real power tool skills and the nous to work out a fix without being walked through it.
• The fitness to be on your feet and lifting all day.
• Someone we can count on. Small team — when you’re not here, everyone feels it.

Nice to have, not deal breakers

• White Card or willing to get one; you’ll need it for site work.
• Forklift licence.
• Background in maintenance, fabrication, manufacturing or construction.

What you get

• $34–$38/hr depending on experience, plus super, plus paid overtime.
• Local. No FIFO, no camp, no two-hour commute — you’re home for dinner.
• Real variety. Workshop, warehouse and out on site, not the same four walls every day.
• Company vehicle for all deliveries and site work — you’re not running your own car into the ground.
• PPE supplied.
• We pay for your tickets — forklift, White Card, and whatever else makes you better at the job.
• Half our workshop crew have been here more than five years. We value our people.
• As we grow, so does the scope to take on more.
