Welder and Fabricator
Visa sponsorship
Trade · Sydney, NSW, Australia · Full-Time · Discussed at interview · Visa: Employer sponsored
First-Class Welder/Fabricators are wanted at a New South Wales engineering and manufacturing business that works out of a Sydney workshop. Jobs vary, but the standard does not: you will weld, fit and assemble engineered parts that must come out precise and dependable.
Hiring here rests on proven trade experience and relevant qualifications rather than a single test weld. Sponsorship may be available to suitably qualified and experienced candidates who satisfy the applicable visa and employer requirements.
Put your trade qualification on the CV together with the processes, positions and kinds of workshop you know. Start with the projects you are proudest of and use Build AI CV to put a welder and fabricator CV together.
