As reported by Australian Mining 12th July 2018:
Northern Territory
Rising optimism is fuelling demand for heavy diesel fitters with experience on specific machinery such as Cat, Komatsu and Liebherr.
Auto electricians are sought, with contractors looking for candidates with experience using the particular machinery used onsite in additional to strong previous industry experience.
Refrigeration technicians are required across a number of sites in the Territory, however there is a shortage of suitable candidates.
NDT technicians with specific certificates within the trade are needed. There are candidates interstate who are available for longer rosters such as 2:1/2:2, but there is only a small pool of candidates in the Territory who are available for Monday to Friday rosters.
All-round operators are in demand too. Sites require candidates with broad experience operating dozers, excavators and articulated dump trucks.
