Lead a Legendary Team Rebuilding CAT Machines to Their Prime!
Step into a leadership role where expertise meets legacy, right at the heart of our Laverton branch. We’re on the lookout for a driven and experienced Team Leader to guide our workshop team – someone who thrives on challenge, leads with purpose, and is passionate about quality.
As the go-to leader for your crew, you won’t just oversee repairs – you’ll coach, support and drive performance every day. From managing workflow and safety to delivering top-tier customer service, you’ll play a critical role in ensuring our service works meet the highest CAT standards.
At William Adams, we’ve spent nearly 100 years powering industries that build, dig, haul and move Australia forward. Together with Caterpillar, we’ve earned a reputation for quality – and that starts with our people.
