At Packweigh, we design and manufacture advanced weighing, bagging, and automation systems used by producers and manufacturers across Australia. As our business continues to grow, we’re looking for an experienced Industrial Electrician to join our production and commissioning team — someone hands-on, safety-minded, and passionate about delivering high-quality, technical work.

This isn’t just a workshop role. Travel is a key part of the job — you'll be regularly working away from home to install and commission equipment at customer sites across the country. If you enjoy variety and the satisfaction of seeing jobs through from build to install, this role offers just that.

Your Role Will Include:

Building and wiring electrical panels for industrial automation systems

Installing, connecting and testing motors, VSDs, sensors, PLCs, and related equipment

Commissioning and fault-finding on-site (interstate travel required)

Ensuring compliance with AS/NZS 3000 and Packweigh internal electrical standards

Collaborating with mechanical and controls teams to deliver complete solutions

Supporting the service team with troubleshooting or upgrades

What We’re Looking For:

Licensed QLD Electrical Fitter Mechanic

Strong background in industrial, automation, or machinery environments

Comfortable reading electrical schematics and wiring control panels

Confident in fault-finding and hands-on troubleshooting

Willing and able to travel regularly (up to several days at a time)

Professional and reliable, with a strong attention to detail

Valid Australian driver’s licence

Bonus Points For:

Experience in automation, packaging, weighing or bagging machinery

Exposure to PLCs such as Allen Bradley, Siemens or Omron

Interest in career development into control systems, service, or project support

Why Join Packweigh?

Join an Australian-owned manufacturer with a national customer base

Work on a wide range of custom-built automation equipment

Be part of a small, capable, and supportive team

Opportunities to develop technical and leadership skills
