GENUINE VARIETY OF WORK

No two weeks look the same. One job is an in situ dragline drum rebuild in the Bowen Basin, the next is a sugar mill shutdown, gear cutting to 5.5 metres, or a slew bearing rebuilt to OEM specification on a borer with 13 metres of travel. Across seven integrated departments and our field division, there's always something to learn.
