TIG Welder (Stainless Steel Food Equipment)

You'll cut, fit and weld steel to drawing in a busy stainless steel equipment manufacturer in Epping. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

The site is in Epping; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

• Keep a hot work permit open and a fire watch in place during shutdowns
• Grind and repair welds flagged by the QC inspector
• TIG weld stainless steel tanks and fittings with proper back-purging
• Set up MIG and flux-cored machines for long production runs
• Prepare joints for radiographic and dye penetrant testing

• At least 2 years of production or site welding after qualifying
• Boilermaker or welder trade test certificate, or current SAIW welder qualification
• You can read fabrication and isometric drawings without help
• Medical fitness certificate for industrial sites, or willing to get one
• Steady hands and good eyesight, with or without glasses
• Valid welder coding to ISO 9606-1 or ASME IX in the processes the job needs

• Rigging or crane signalling certificate
• Orbital or automatic welding experience

• Leather welding PPE and auto-darkening helmet supplied
• Coding renewals paid by the employer
• Accommodation and meals paid on out-of-town shutdowns
• Shutdown bonus and site allowance for work away from home

• List each coding separately with the standard, process, position and expiry date. "Coded welder" on its own tells a recruiter nothing.
• Expired codings are the number one reason welders are turned away at the gate. Check dates before you apply.
