The right trades, without the hiring headache

Technical Manpower

Electricians, mechanical fitters and CMMS specialists, for a day, a project, or the long haul. With trade vacancies only being filled at 54% nationally, hiring is a battle you don’t need. We supply qualified, vetted people and handle the employment side, so you just get the job done.

What this typically involves

  • Electricians, mechanical fitters, and CMMS specialists
  • Cover for a day, a project, or an ongoing term
  • Vetting, induction, and the employment side handled for you
Common use cases

Where this typically comes up

1

A sudden gap on the roster

A key tradesperson is off sick or has resigned with no notice, and a critical skill gap has opened up overnight. Waiting weeks to advertise and interview is not an option when the work still has to happen.

Trade and technical roles have a national vacancy fill rate of just 54%, the worst of any occupation category, so advertising alone often isn't enough.

2

Seasonal or peak-demand pressure

Demand spikes at a predictable time of year, whether that is a shutdown season, harvest, or end-of-financial-year push, and the permanent crew simply is not big enough to cover it.

3

A specialist skill for one job only

A project needs a specific qualification or specialist experience that the site does not otherwise use, so a permanent hire would sit idle the rest of the year.

Example scenario

the shutdown that finished on time

A plant needed two extra fitters and an electrician for a five-day shutdown. Advertising had produced nothing in six weeks. That's no surprise when barely half of trade vacancies in Australia get filled. We supplied the crew, inducted and ready, on day one. The shutdown finished on schedule, avoiding overrun costs the manager budgeted at $40K a day.
