Job description

This is a supported role for qualified technicians who care about doing great work and improving their skills.

Drain Defenders is a rapidly growing residential maintenance business servicing Logan, South Brisbane and Northern Gold Coast. We run a steady-paced, organised operation. We don’t send you racing all over Logan or stacking jobs back-to-back. You work one job at a time, with the space and expectation to do it properly and provide real value to each customer.

If you’re over chaos and want a role where quality, growth and balance actually exist, this is it.

How This Role Works

You’ll be part of a small residential team working directly with homeowners across Logan, South Brisbane and Northern Gold Coast

We don’t do work for builders or strata. Our jobs are scheduled realistically so you can focus on the task in front of you, not the next five waiting.

• Weekly training and skill development

Training, Coaching & Support

We care about your personal progression, not just output.

You’ll have clear goals and targets aligned with what you want to achieve. We run weekly coaching and check-ins to support your development, skills and progression.

No pressure. No hidden metrics. Clear performance visibility with support to address any areas in need of improvement.

Pay, Tools & Lifestyle

• $50-$65 per hour + super base rate for the right technician
• Performance-based incentives and bonuses
