• Earn $50 to $60/hr plus super on a permanent full-time basis.
• Accommodation and a work vehicle are both provided
• Specialised trade with strong long-term demand across Australia.

Why Apply

Still earning NZ rates doing the same road marking runs week after week? This is a chance to get paid properly for your skills, with your accommodation and vehicle sorted on arrival.

• Earn $50 to $60/hr plus super on a permanent full-time basis. No casual uncertainty, no labour hire. Just steady money.
• Accommodation and a work vehicle are both provided. Your costs on arrival are minimal and more of your pay stays with you.
• Work across road markings, car parks, pedestrian crossings, symbols, legends, and traffic guidance markings on real NT infrastructure projects.
• Specialised trade with strong long-term demand across Australia. The skills you build here travel well and open doors across the country.
• Structured roster of around 11 to 14 days on followed by 3 to 4 days off. You know when you are working and when you are not.

The Role

You will be applying and maintaining pavement markings across a range of sites in and around Alice Springs. The work is hands-on, detail-focused, and carried out in live traffic and construction environments.

• Applying road markings, symbols, legends, parking bays, arrows, crossings, and traffic control markings
• Preparing surfaces including cleaning, measuring, masking, and layout
• Operating linemarking machines, hand spray equipment, grinders, and blowers
• Removing or covering existing markings where required
• Checking line widths, spacing, dimensions, and layout before and during application
• Conducting daily pre-start checks and basic maintenance on vehicles and equipment
• Following traffic management plans, SWMS, and site safety requirements
• Working closely with supervisors, traffic controllers, and crew members

What We Need

• Hands-on experience with linemarking machines or civil construction in a similar field
• Experience working in live traffic environments
• Current driver licence (non-negotiable)
• Construction White Card
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship
• Willingness to relocate to Alice Springs and commit to a variable roster including early starts, nights, and weekends

Why This Role

The hourly rate here is well above what most linemarkers are earning in NZ, and with accommodation and a vehicle included you are not spending your wage on setup costs. This is a permanent role with a company that has ongoing NT project work, not a short-term contract. If you want to plant roots in Australia and actually get ahead financially, this is a solid move.
