Maintenance Fitter | 7 On 7 Off | $105K + Super | 186 Visa 
Work half the year on a 7 on 7 off roster while earning $105K + super. Join a leading poultry processor with strong systems, stability, and 186 visa sponsorship available.

Hazeldene’s Chickens, a well-established poultry processing business based in Lockwood, Victoria, is currently seeking Maintenance Fitters to join their team.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a role that offers both lifestyle and long-term career stability in a highly regulated, professional production environment.

Yes, this is a chicken processing facility. It is not for everyone.
But if you are comfortable in a food production setting and take pride in high standards, this is a genuinely rewarding role.

About the Environment:
This is a fast-paced, highly regulated production facility operating under strict food safety, hygiene, and animal welfare standards.

You will be working in a clean, structured environment where compliance, safety, and quality are taken seriously and regularly audited.

If you prefer a slower-paced or less structured workplace, this may not be the right fit. If you value standards, systems, and professionalism, you will thrive here.

Key Responsibilities:
• Maintain, service, and repair plant equipment across the production line
• Troubleshoot breakdowns and minimise downtime
• Work across mechanical systems, hydraulics, and pneumatics
• Support production teams with technical expertise
• Ensure all work meets strict food safety and hygiene standards

What You Will Bring:
• Trade qualification as a Fitter or Millwright
• Experience in manufacturing, production, or processing environments
• Strong mechanical knowledge, including hydraulics and pneumatics
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, team-based environment
• A proactive and practical approach to problem solving
Experience in food processing is highly regarded, but not essential.

Why This Role Stands Out:
This is more than just a maintenance role. It is an opportunity to:
• Achieve genuine work-life balance with a 7 on 7 off roster
• Secure long-term stability, including visa sponsorship if required
• Work in a modern facility with strong systems and processes
• Join a team that values reliability, teamwork, and getting the job done

Whether you are an Australian or New Zealand citizen, or currently in Australia on a visa and looking for a pathway to permanency, this opportunity is worth serious consideration.
If this sounds like the kind of role you have been hoping would come up, it probably is.

No need to wing it, ruffle a few feathers, and spread your wings. Apply now.
