Reporting to the Engineering Manager, you will be responsible for servicing, maintaining and repairing a range of facility equipment and machinery used in the production of plasterboard.
Working on a shift roster, you will join a small team responsible for ensuring the continuous operation of the manufacturing facility.
Some of your key duties will include, but will not be limited to:

Who is Knauf looking for?
To be considered for this role, you must be a trade qualified electrician with demonstrable post apprenticeship experience, preferably in a manufacturing/production environment as part of a continuous shift roster.
Additionally, a forklift licence and any experience with Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC's), while not essential, would be seen as highly desirable.
As an experienced electrician, you will understand the importance of maintaining a high quality of work, and will be proactive in both developing effective relationships with production team members and undertaking repairs/identifying faults to facility machinery and equipment.
You welcome flexibility and variety in your work, completing a range of other duties not strictly limited to electrical work in order to ensure the safe and continuous operation of the facility.
As this is a fast paced manufacturing environment, your strong attention to detail and ability to operate at a productive pace for extended periods of time will go a long way to ensuring your success.
