This is a field-service role for industrial electricians in Adelaide who want to specialise in overhead cranes, hoists, gantries and industrial lifting systems. You would travel between industrial sites diagnosing faults, doing preventative maintenance, commissioning equipment and responding to breakdowns.
Suitable candidates with verified qualifications and relevant experience may be considered for sponsorship. Willingness to learn crane and lifting technology is part of the brief, so the focus is on strong electrical fundamentals and a practical, independent approach to problems on site.
Put your electrical licence and Cert III in Electrotechnology at the top of your English CV, then add the PLC fault-finding and motor control work you have done. Then polish an Adelaide service technician CV with Build AI CV.
