Job description

About the role

National Leak Detection | Full-Time | Qualified Plumber

Are you a qualified plumber who is over the same old maintenance jobs, crawling under houses and doing the same work every day?

What if you could use your plumbing experience to move into a specialist, technology-driven role where every job is different?

National Leak Detection is looking for a Qualified Plumber with strong maintenance experience to join our Adelaide team.

No leak detection experience? No problem. We'll train you.

We're looking for the right attitude, a good plumbing foundation and someone who enjoys solving problems rather than simply fixing them.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll become a specialist in finding problems that other plumbers can't easily see.

Your role will include:

• Using thermal imaging cameras and specialist equipment to locate water leaks
• Investigating difficult and unusual plumbing issues
• Conducting CCTV drain inspections
• Learning advanced acoustic leak detection to locate underground burst pipes
• Locating underground pipes and cables using specialist equipment
• Conducting roof inspections and using drones to identify damage and maintenance issues
• Preparing professional inspection reports for customers
• Meeting customers, explaining your findings and providing exceptional service

Every day is different. Every property presents a new challenge.

And importantly, we provide the training to teach you the specialist equipment and techniques.

This Could Be Your Next Career Move

We don't expect you to walk in knowing everything.

If you're a qualified plumber who:

• Has solid maintenance plumbing experience
• Enjoys fault finding and problem solving
• Takes pride in doing a quality job
• Is professional and well presented
• Communicates confidently with customers
• Can work independently and manage your own day
• Is interested in technology and learning new skills
• Wants to build a career rather than just work another plumbing job

…then we'd like to hear from you.

Experience in leak detection, CCTV, roof inspections, drones or locating equipment is a bonus — but it's not essential.

We'll teach you.

A Better Way to Work

One of the biggest differences with this role is that you won't be doing the same physically demanding plumbing work day after day.

Work smarter, not harder.

You'll spend your days travelling to different properties, investigating problems, using specialist technology and working with customers.

What We Offer

• 4-day work week incentive for the right person (That's an extra day back every week to spend with your family, pursue your own interests or simply enjoy life.)
• Competitive salary package
• Company vehicle
• Phone allowance
• Uniform and PPE supplied
• Specialist leak detection training
• Genuine career development opportunities
• Flexible arrangements depending on experience
• Less physically demanding work
• A professional and supportive team environment
• Regular toolbox meetings
• Ongoing personal development
• Employee wellbeing focus
• Team events including race days, mini-golf, social breakfasts and more
• Interstate travel opportunities when required

Don't Just Get Another Plumbing Job

If you're ready to take your plumbing career in a different direction, learn specialist skills and become part of a growing industry, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.

You bring the plumbing experience. We'll teach you the leak detection.

If you're reliable, professional, curious and enjoy solving problems,

We'd love to meet you.
