Trades & Services

Stellar Recruitment are working on a long-term opportunity for New Zealand-based plumbers looking to step into Australia’s growing infrastructure market.

These roles are based in the Toowoomba & Darling Downs region, supporting a range of civil and commercial projects across water, sewer, and drainage infrastructure.

This is a genuine relocation opportunity, not a short-term contract.

The Role:
  • Installation and maintenance of pipelines, stormwater, and water infrastructure
  • Working across civil and commercial construction environments
  • Reading plans and working alongside experienced site teams
  • Delivering work to Australian standards (AS3500) and site safety requirements
What’s On Offer:
  • Estimated annual earnings between $105K – $130K + allowances
  • Consistent hours with strong project pipeline (not stop/start work)
  • Long-term career progression within a growing contractor
  • Full PPE, uniforms, and additional employee benefits provided
  • Support with relocation and onboarding into the team
Projects & Work Environment:
You’ll be working on large-scale infrastructure projects including:
  • Sewer and water main installations
  • Subdivision and civil development works
  • Deep pipeline and drainage projects
These are technically detailed jobs involving trenching, pipe installation at depth, and coordination with multiple trades, not basic maintenance work.

Why Toowoomba?
  • Lower cost of living compared to major cities
  • Strong pipeline of construction and infrastructure work
  • 90 minutes to Brisbane, easy access to coastlines
  • Laid-back lifestyle with solid community feel and modern infrastructure
What You’ll Need:
  • Trade qualification in Plumbing
  • Experience in civil, drainage, or infrastructure projects (highly regarded)
  • Ability to read plans and work both independently and within a crew
  • Open to relocating to regional Queensland
This suits plumbers who want more than bouncing between short-term jobs, it’s about locking in steady work, building experience on major projects, and setting yourself up long-term in Australia.

If you’re based in NZ and thinking about making the move, let’s have a chat.
