About the Opportunity 

This is a rare opportunity to join a growing independent asphalt company known for a positive customer-focused culture and contracting excellence.

As the laboratory technician, you will be responsible running all aspects of a busy NATA-accredited laboratory supporting a new asphalt production plant at Dandenong. 

You will maintain laboratory test equipment and calibrations, ensure safety and housekeeping aspects are covered and provide feedback on test results to production personnel including any non-conformances.

Ideally, you will have:

  • Experience sampling and testing of asphalt for bitumen content and grading, including maximum density testing;
