Welding is one of Australia’s most in-demand trades and can offer lifelong employment. As one of the most prominent labour agencies Melbourne businesses turn to for their recruitment needs, AIO Contracting says they are struggling to hire enough welders to meet the demand from their clients.

Currently, they are hiring for multiple welder positions within the Melbourne, Geelong, and Ballarat regions.

To help them satisfy the huge demand, the labour hire company in Melbourne has introduced a free one-day ‘Introduction to Welding’ short course. The course is designed to upskill students’ welding skills and capabilities, helping them to kick-start a career in the industry.

At the conclusion of the one-day course, successful students will be given the opportunity to be employed by the labour hire company to fill the roles they have available, which require basic welding and fabrication skills.

Full-time employment opportunities are on offer with highly desirable day shifts within the engineering and manufacturing industries.

To be eligible for the free course, applicants need only minimal MIG Welding experience. In addition, basic MIG Welding capabilities are desired, but not essential.

Instead, AIO is looking for applicants with aspirations for a long-term welding career, a desire to work in a fabrication shop and confidence with hand tools.
