This is a FIFO position from either Cairns or Darwin only. If you reside elsewhere, please note that you must be willing and able to travel to and from one of these nominated FIFO points at your own expense. 

Meals and accommodation are supplied whilst on site. The roster on offer is 13 days on, 8 days off, and is non-negotiable. This is primarily a day shift crew, with night shifts scheduled in advance as required for specific work scopes.
