Job description

About the Opportunity

Hydraulics keep heavy machinery running - and when something breaks down, it's the technician who can find the fault and fix it. That's the trade we're inviting you into.

Beasley's Hydraulics has been on call for fluid power solutions since 1995 - from routine maintenance to emergency repairs to custom system builds. We're growing, and we need another Apprentice Hydraulic Technician to join our Bundaberg team. You'll spend your days working alongside technicians who've spent years in the trade the way it's best learned - on the tools, working through the problem in front of you. Servicing, maintaining, troubleshooting, repairing, testing, commissioning - you'll get exposure to all of it, across a huge range of equipment and industries.

As part of the Questas Group, Beasley's also gives you something a standalone workshop can't: access to a nationwide network of fluid power expertise, resources and a longstanding career - while still learning your trade in a local team that knows its customers by name.

You won't be figuring this out on your own. Through our Elevate Apprenticeship Program, you'll have a mentor in your corner, structured learning through the Elevate Academy, and a wider community of apprentices across Questas Group going through the same journey.

Your Responsibilities

• Work alongside senior technicians to install, maintain, and repair hydraulic and pneumatic systems and equipment
• Get comfortable reading hydraulic schematics and technical manuals
• Help diagnose and troubleshoot faults across a wide range of hydraulic systems
• Assemble and disassemble hydraulic components
• Build your skills with hydraulic tools and testing equipment, and learn the ins and outs of our stock — hoses, fittings, seals, and more
• Take part in training that grows your knowledge year on year

About You

• Minimum Year 10 High School Certificate
• Curious about how machines work and how to fix them
• Comfortable with maths, and good with your hands
• Careful and precise - small details matter in this trade
• A clear communicator who enjoys working with people
• Motivated, reliable, and ready to learn

Why Join Beasley's?

• Employee benefits program - offering salary packaging options, novated leasing, discounts at everyday stores and much more!
• 8 weeks paid parental leave & 1 week secondary carer leave.
• An inclusive culture and access to our Women’s Lead Network
• A robust focus on work, health and safety through our “Home Safely Every day” program
• Fitness Passport
