Feeling unappreciated?
Boss a bit of a d*ck?
Spending half your life in traffic wondering where it all went wrong?
Yeah... life's too short for that.
At Up A Creek Plumbing, we actually recognise and appreciate great plumbers. You won't be "just an employee" here — you'll be a valued part of a tight-knit crew who genuinely give a sh*t about each other.
We laugh a lot, support each other when jobs go sideways, and take real pride in our work. No drama. No egos. Just good humans doing solid plumbing.
The Role
We're on the hunt for a qualified maintenance plumber who knows their stuff and cares about doing a good job.
This is maintenance plumbing for real people — homes, property managers, families, pets, the lot.
No new builds. No chaos for chaos' sake.
We also keep the majority of our work local on the Gold Coast, so you're not spending hours driving. That means you can actually:
* Sneak in a morning surf
* Hit the gym
* Do a day care / school drop-off
* Or just start the day without stress
What You'll Be Doing
* General maintenance plumbing
* Leaks, blocked drains & fault finding
* Working in occupied homes (real people, real lives)
* Using ServiceM8 for job notes & photos
What We're Looking For
* Minimum 2 years' experience in maintenance plumbing (real estate experience a big plus)
* Fully qualified & licensed plumber (QLD). Extra Bonus points for Gas.
* Confident, capable and takes pride in workmanship
* Positive attitude (no Debbie Downers)
* Takes ownership of jobs, paperwork and problem-solving
* Team player happy to be on an after-hours/weekend call-out roster
* Open driver's licence
Bonus points if you handle a light roast
Why Our Plumbers Stay
* Local work – less driving, more living
* We've got your back – when jobs go pear-shaped, you're supported, not blamed
* No rushing for the sake of it – quality over chaos, always
* Clear expectations – you know what's expected and where you stand
* No micromanaging – we trust you to do your job
* You're not just a number – we actually care about your life outside of work
Happy plumbers do better work. It's not complicated.
What We Offer
* Great pay package ($47–$55/hr depending on experience)
* Fully kitted Toyota ute + iPhone
* Supportive, positive, lots-of-laughs team culture
* Long-term job security with a well-established local business
* Support to grow your skills if you want to level up
* Real work/life balance (because burnout helps no one)
