Hydraulic Support Technician - Monday to Friday

Tasman Mill | Kawerau

Be the hydraulic expert the site relies on.

Monday–Friday. No weekend roster. No chasing the same breakdown twice.

This is an opportunity for an experienced Hydraulic Technician, Hydraulic Fitter or Mechanical Fitter with strong hydraulic experience to take ownership of hydraulic systems across a large-scale industrial site.

You’ll become the go-to hydraulic specialist for the site — diagnosing complex faults, solving recurring problems and helping improve the reliability of critical equipment.

This is a hands-on technical role, but with a difference. Rather than simply fixing the immediate problem and moving on, you’ll have the time and responsibility to understand why it failed and what can be done to stop it happening again.

Why you'll want this role

  • Monday–Friday – enjoy your weekends without a regular roster
  • Permanent, long-term opportunity with an established New Zealand manufacturer
  • Work on large-scale, complex industrial hydraulic systems
  • Become the recognised hydraulic specialist on site
  • Spend less time repeating repairs and more time solving the underlying problem
  • Use your fault-finding and diagnostic skills every day
  • Work alongside experienced maintenance and engineering professionals
  • Have a genuine influence on plant reliability and equipment performance
  • Build your reputation as the site's hydraulic expert

What you'll be doing

You’ll be responsible for supporting the hydraulic reliability of the site, working closely with the maintenance and engineering teams.

Your day will involve a combination of hands-on troubleshooting, diagnosis, repair and reliability improvement, including:

  • Advanced hydraulic fault-finding and troubleshooting
  • Diagnosing recurring hydraulic system failures
  • Reading and interpreting hydraulic schematics
  • Testing and repairing hydraulic components and systems
  • Supporting planned maintenance and shutdown activities
  • Investigating hydraulic failures and identifying root causes
  • Recommending and implementing improvements to prevent repeat failures
  • Improving preventative maintenance practices
  • Supporting the maintenance team with hydraulic technical advice
  • Reviewing hydraulic equipment, documentation and spare parts requirements
  • Working with engineering and maintenance teams on hydraulic improvements

About you

We're looking for someone who really knows hydraulics and enjoys solving problems.

You could currently be working as a:

  • Hydraulic Technician
  • Hydraulic Fitter
  • Hydraulic Field Service Technician
  • Mechanical Fitter
  • Heavy Diesel Technician
  • Heavy Equipment Technician
  • Industrial Maintenance Technician

You don't necessarily need to have worked in a pulp or paper mill. We're interested in people who have developed strong hydraulic troubleshooting skills in demanding industrial or heavy equipment environments.

You’ll ideally have:

  • Strong hands-on hydraulic fault-finding and diagnostic experience
  • The ability to confidently read hydraulic schematics
  • Experience working on complex hydraulic systems
  • Strong mechanical aptitude and problem-solving ability
  • Experience diagnosing the cause of a failure rather than simply replacing components
  • A practical, hands-on approach
  • Good communication skills and the confidence to work with maintenance and engineering teams
  • Experience in SAP, CMMS or other maintenance systems would be advantageous

Experience in pulp & paper, steel, mining, forestry, processing, manufacturing or other heavy industrial environments would be highly regarded.

A chance to become the hydraulic specialist

If you’re an experienced hydraulic technician who wants to use your knowledge, solve problems and take ownership, rather than simply spend every day reacting to breakdowns, this is a great opportunity.

You’ll be working on a large and technically interesting industrial site, with the opportunity to become the person everyone turns to when there’s a hydraulic problem — and, more importantly, the person who works out how to stop it happening again.

Only shortlisted applicants will be contacted.
