Job Title: Mechanical Engineer
Location: Nelson - Nelson City
Position Type: Full Time
Application Closes: 18 Nov 2024
Salary: Minimum 40-hour week, up to $47/hr plus generous O/T & other allowances
Company Overview: A great team, a great brand, and a fast-growing business. Due to internal promotions and business growth, we need an additional Team Leader for our contract maintenance business.
About the Job
Our Team Leaders have really stepped up as our business has grown and are now a key part of our operations. They play a proactive hands-on leadership role overseeing teams of professional tradespeople providing trade engineering expertise to a wide and varied range of customers, including:

Fisheries
Food production
Aquaculture and marine
Sawmills
MDF/LVL manufacturing
And more.

In this role, you will be the crucial link between our maintenance services business unit and one of our major manufacturing clients. Embedded in their operation, you will get to use your extensive maintenance engineering skills, knowledge, and abilities to deal with diverse on-the-job challenges whilst providing great leadership and support to the small, qualified team you supervise. You will also get to use your naturally extroverted interpersonal skills to further develop and strengthen the existing client relationship.
About You
You should be:

Trade qualified in a relevant engineering discipline.
In a current foreman/supervisory role and ready for a changeup, or an experienced tradie or leading hand looking for the next step.
A naturally outgoing person, comfortable interacting directly with clients.
Unafraid of proactively seeking additional work opportunities for your team.
Comfortable using computer software (e.g. Word, Excel, JobPro).
Happy doing admin tasks like estimating, quoting, creating job packs, etc.
Able to read and interpret engineering drawings.
Keen to use your excellent diagnostic and fault-finding skills to resolve customer problems.
Have exposure to condition monitoring and reporting.
Certified competent as a TIG/MMAW welder.
Have experience with hydraulics and pneumatics (useful).

You don't want just a job, but a career step where you are expected to think for yourself and make decisions. You want to be given the opportunity to not only grow your leadership skills and be fairly rewarded for your talent, but also to grow the skills of your team, in order to create a group of high-performance professionals like yourself. You are definitely someone who relishes being trusted to do what you do best – work smart, work safe, find solutions, and own what you do.
About Us
The Kernohan team loves nothing more than a job well done. Happy customers and proud staff are a strong combination, and we're equally committed to both. Providing expert maintenance services to multiple industries has been a key part of our business since 1972. It can be a complex and risky job, and we stand by our commitment to deliver services safely, to the right standard, on budget and on time.
We routinely help customers with:

Planned 24/7 shutdowns
Preventative plant maintenance
Emergency break downs and call outs

Our Nelson facilities are a great base from which to service both local and nationwide customers. With years of experience providing specialist maintenance services to nationwide customers, often in remote and hostile locations, we've had ample opportunity to refine our skills in mobilising people and plant. And now you can be part of all of this
