Description
Seasonal Mechanic – Central Queensland
Gyranda Santa Gertrudis Stud – Dawson River, QLD
Travelling around Australia and looking for a peaceful place to pause for a while?
Stopover on the banks of the Dawson River in Central Queensland. Park up in a beautiful riverside location, on a hill or beside staff quarters with access to power — whichever suits your set-up.
“Gyranda” is a 9,500-hectare, family-owned Santa Gertrudis cattle stud located 45km south of Theodore. You’ll be joining a friendly, capable on-property team of full-time staff and seasonal crew who reside on the property.
We’re seeking an experienced mechanic for a 1–6 month stay (timing flexible), assisting with routine repairs and maintenance across a broad range of machinery.
The role includes:
- General servicing and maintenance – small motors through to dozers
- Pumps, motorbikes, side-by-sides, work vehicles, trucks and tractors
- Welding, electrical or additional trade skills highly valued
- Varied, practical work — no major backlog, as we’ve had seasonal mechanical support for the past decade
We offer:
- Flexible and negotiable hours
- Competitive rates
- A genuinely welcoming environment
- A long history of wonderful grey (and not-so-grey) nomads who intended to stay briefly… and didn’t
