Website GL Manufacturing - K&F Fabrications

Delivering quality custom metalwork to SEQ since 1996.

Job Summary:
Senior pay rate: $38-$46/hr depending on experience

Certificate III in Engineering

Extensive experience in aluminium and stainless steel fabrication

Advanced TIG welding ability
Experience Required: Any experience

K&F Fabrications has been delivering high-end architectural metalwork on the Sunshine Coast for over 30 years. Under new ownership since 2024, the business is being run the way a good fabrication shop should be – proper equipment, clear systems, and people who care about the quality of what goes out the door.

We do bespoke, high-quality work – custom architectural builds that take real skill, not bulk orders and repeat runs. The team is small by design, close-knit, and holds itself to a high standard.

We’re looking for a Senior Boilermaker/Fabricator to step into a key role in our workshop – someone experienced enough to lead by example, set the standard for quality, and bring others up with them as we grow. For the right person, there’s a clear pathway into a Foreman role.

What You’ll Do

  • Fabricate and finish high-end architectural components in aluminium and stainless steel to exacting standards
  • Execute precision TIG welds – clean, consistent, and something you’d put your name on
  • Read and interpret shop drawings accurately and contribute meaningfully to the fabrication workflow
  • Lead by example on quality and finish, and help junior fabricators raise their game
  • Work closely with the business on scheduling, priorities, and workflow as we scale
  • Mentor and support junior fabricators as part of your day-to-day

What You Bring

  • Certificate III in Engineering – Fabrication Trade (Boilermaker or equivalent)
  • Extensive experience in aluminium and stainless steel fabrication
  • Advanced TIG welding ability in both materials, with a finish to match
  • Confidence reading and working from technical drawings
  • The kind of attention to detail that means you catch problems before they happen
  • An eye for quality and a natural tendency to help others get there too
  • A positive, professional attitude and the maturity to take on more responsibility over time
  • You notice where things could work better – and you take ownership to fix it

Why K&F?

  • Senior pay rate: $38-$46/hr depending on experience
  • Brand new Kemppi TIG welders – proper gear for people who care about the result
  • Architectural-grade, one-off projects – not production-line work
  • A clear pathway to Foreman for the right person
  • A small, capable team where your skills are genuinely valued
  • Sunshine Coast workshop – no long-haul travel, less stress about gas prices!
