  • Carry out repairs, modifications, and installations on plant structures and equipment
  • Work from heights, scaffolds, and in confined spaces as required
  • Complete isolations, permits, and job cards to site procedures
  • Work alongside other trades as part of a broader reline crew
  • Follow all site safety, environmental, and quality requirements

Licences/Experience Required:
