Stratco is a proudly Australian-owned business with over 75 years of excellence in innovation, manufacturing, and customer service within the building industry. With an expanding presence across Australia, New Zealand, and select international markets, Stratco is committed to delivering high-quality products, trusted partnerships and exceptional customer experiences.

At Stratco, Safety is paramount, and we take every measure to ensure our team members ‘Return Home Safe’.

Ready to roll up your sleeves and be part of something that gets made? This isn’t just another factory job—it’s a chance to be on the floor where things happen, where teamwork drives results, and where your hard work shows at the end of every shift.

The difference you’ll make

Becoming part of the Stratco operations family, your role will include:

  • Operating metal folding, roll forming, and pressing machinery with precision and care
  • Manufacturing products to meet customer specifications and quality standards
  • Assisting with general housekeeping to maintain a clean, organised, and safe workspace
  • Working collaboratively across teams and contributing to a positive workplace culture
  • Participating in toolbox talks and team meetings
  • Championing workplace safety by following critical safety procedures and helping maintain a safe working environment for everyone
What We’re Looking For
  • Previous experience as a machine operator/production worker
  • Whilst advantageous to have experience with sheet metal equipment — especially roll formers, folders, and press brakes, it’s not essential.
  • FLT licence preferred, but not essential
  • A reliable team player with a proactive, can-do mindset
  • A practical problem solver, who can think on their feet

Life at Stratco includes

Holistic Wellness & Mental Health Support | 24/7 EAP to team members & family | Team Member Discounts | Professional Development & Career Growth | Competitive Remuneration | Positive Workplace Culture & Inclusion
