The Role
We're chasing Advanced Riggers for casual FIFO shutdown work.
What You'll Be Doing
* Leading complex and heavy lifts for major gear — think apron feeders, shuttles, large gates, and other OEM plant.
* Interpreting lift plans and detailed engineering drawings to execute rigging tasks safely and efficiently.
* Inspecting and maintaining rigging gear, ensuring it's compliant, certified, and always ready for work.
* Mentoring more junior riggers, stepping in to guide fitters and boilermakers when needed — you're a true technical leader.

* Current High-Risk Work Licence (HRWL) for rigging (RI or RA).
* Valid C-class driver's licence.
* Essential qualifications: Confined Space, Working at Heights, Gas Test Atmospheres, VOC (RA/RI), all valid within the past 2 years.
* First Attack Firefighting Equipment certificate — safety is non-negotiable.
* A strong safety mindset and a team-oriented attitude — you know that rigging isn't a solo show.
Why Work With Us?
* Highly competitive pay — we reward the advanced skill and responsibility you bring.
* Casual, FIFO shutdown work departing from Perth — flexibility, variety, and top-dollar for peak times.
* Recurring opportunities — we have strong relationships and consistent shutdown pipelines.
* Supportive, safety-driven culture — you'll be part of a crew that cares, communicates, and looks out for each other.
* Growth & mentorship — you won't just execute lifts; you'll help build our rigging capability, guiding and coaching other team members.
