About Us
At Pakka Jacks, a division of Sime Industrial, we're revolutionising heavy equipment maintenance across the mining and construction sectors. Our world-class, patented jacking system is transforming safety, efficiency, and productivity on site-cutting downtime by up to 80% and costs by up to 75%.
We're more than a technology provider-we're a team of professionals pushing the boundaries of what's possible, driven by safety, continuous improvement, and customer success.
Why Join Pakka Jacks?
✅ Industry-changing technology adopted by leading mining clients
✅ Permanent, full-time opportunity with full training provided
✅ Team with a quality assurance and training focus
✅ Competitive salary, and employee benefits
The Role
This is not your standard position. You'll provide technical oversight including maintenance of the jacking system and support equipment.
With a strong focus on client service and business development, you'll build stakeholder relationships, and support training initiatives across multiple locations.
Key responsibilities include:
- Providing oversight for compliant work delivery
- Providing technical support and maintenance
- Engaging directly with clients and stakeholders to problem-solve and deliver on expectations
About You
We're looking for a technically minded individual who is self-starting and can work alone as well as guide teams in high-risk environments while staying cool, calm, and connected to clients.
To thrive in this role, you'll need:
- Mechanical aptitude and the confidence to hold technical conversations
- Strong communication and organisational skills
- Ability to work independently and within a team environment
- A willingness to travel frequently, learn new systems, and think on your feet
- Training, QA or site leadership experience will be highly regarded
- Current valid driver's license
- You can be based in Brisbane
Experience in Mining, Rigging and Cranes are a bonus-but not essential. If you're mechanically minded and ready to grow, we'll back you with training.
What's On Offer
- Permanent, full-time opportunity
- Competitive salary
- Fully assessed training, including systems, safety, and supervision
- Laptop, phone, and PPE provided
- Supportive culture with strong safety and quality standards
- Employee benefits including private health insurance, vehicles, retail products, and salary sacrificing (novated lease) options.
All applications will be treated with the strictest of confidentiality and only successful candidates will be contacted for interview.
