You will also need strong technical writing skills, and experience with AutoCAD will be highly regarded.
You will have the experience and awareness needed to ensure all works carried out are compliant with relevant codes and standards, and have a commitment to workplace health and safety. Knowledge of Safety of Machinery AS 4024 will be highly regarded.
About the Benefits
A competitive remuneration package circa $110,000 - $140,000 including super, negotiable based on the skills and experience you bring to the role.
As a well-established company operating for over 20 years, GRG has built a fantastic industry reputation and continues to grow, steadily expanding its operations and service offerings through Australia. You will benefit from an experienced organisation with ongoing career opportunities and great job security.
