Maintenance Electrician SunRice Group Australia

SunRice Group is looking for a Maintenance Electrician to join their CopRice site in Leeton, NSW. This is a full-time role, on-site, and very hands-on. You’ll be part of the crew that keeps everything running — diagnosing breakdowns, doing scheduled maintenance, and keeping the plant ticking over safely. If you’ve worked with PLCs and enjoy solving problems without a lot of fuss, this might suit you. They’re after someone who knows their way around fault finding, has a current electrical license, and can work well alone or in a team. Pay is competitive and there’s a real chance to grow with the business.

About SunRice Group

CopRice, their animal nutrition arm, runs sites across NSW and VIC, making feeds for livestock and pets. What’s different about working here is the mix of solid team culture, job security, and the chance to keep learning. No suits, no fluff — just a place where people get stuck in and look out for each other.
