Trade Qualified Handymen from Plumbers to Electricians

Posted 24d ago

Do you have a trade qualification and a desire to build a better work/life balance?

The Caravan Hub in Townsville is looking for trade-qualified glazers, carpenters, cabinet makers, metal workers, electricians and refrigeration mechanics, or people who have long-standing experience as a handyman. If you’re good on the tools and like problem-solving, we want to talk to you.

Caravan repair work includes:

  • Methodical problem solving
  • Working to a job card
  • Taking photos of your job progress as you work
  • Removing and refitting accessories, which requires careful handling and a neat finish with silicone
  • Removing and replacing fixtures including windows, doors, hatches, solar panels, antennas etc.
  • Basic plumbing and low-pressure repair and maintenance on plumbing fittings
  • Learning and understanding how caravans are put together, so you can troubleshoot problems with 12V power, water, and leaks
  • An excellent eye for detail – you need to be able to go into a van, identify the problem, repair it and then clean up after yourself, including gathering up offcuts, cleaning up swarf and sawdust, picking up your tools and wiping up greasy marks
