Purpose of the position
The main purpose of the Plumber position is to provide plumbing maintenance, repair and installation services at residential and commercial properties. The successful candidate will be responsible for identifying plumbing problems, determining the work required and carrying out suitable repairs or installations. This may involve working with water pipes, taps, toilets, drainage systems, geysers and plumbing fixtures in kitchens and bathrooms.
The role also requires the ability to investigate faults, identify possible causes of plumbing problems and record the materials used during each job. Accurate job information helps ensure that the work completed and any further requirements are properly documented. In addition to technical duties, the plumber must maintain clean working areas and communicate professionally with customers throughout the service process.
Key responsibilities and duties
The appointed plumber will be expected to perform a variety of plumbing tasks depending on customer requirements and the nature of each job.
1. Plumbing repairs and general maintenance
The successful candidate will carry out repairs and maintenance on common plumbing systems and fixtures. These duties include attending to leaking taps, burst pipes, damaged water connections, faulty toilets and drainage problems. The plumber must assess reported issues, identify the source of the problem and complete the necessary repair work. Maintenance tasks should be handled carefully to restore the proper functioning of plumbing systems and minimise inconvenience to customers.
2. Geyser repairs and installations
The position includes working on geysers, including repairs, replacements and new installations. The plumber will be expected to assess geyser-related problems and determine the appropriate work required. Where replacement or installation is necessary, the work must be completed in accordance with applicable safety requirements and professional standards. Candidates with relevant experience in geyser installations and repairs may find this aspect of the role particularly important.
3. Bathroom and kitchen plumbing
The successful applicant will assist with plumbing installations and renovation work in bathrooms and kitchens. This may involve installing or replacing plumbing fixtures, connecting water supply lines and working on related plumbing systems. The plumber must ensure that installations are completed properly and that the finished work meets the required quality standards.
4. Leak detection and blocked drains
The plumber will be responsible for investigating water leaks and attending to blocked drainage systems. This requires the ability to identify problem areas, assess the condition of the affected plumbing system and determine the appropriate solution. The candidate should approach fault-finding systematically to help resolve problems effectively.
5. Technical fault-finding
The role requires the plumber to investigate plumbing faults and determine what work is needed to address them. The successful candidate must be able to assess the situation at each property, identify the relevant problem and establish which materials or repairs are required. Good attention to detail is essential when recording the findings and communicating any additional work that may be necessary.
6. Recording materials and job requirements
The appointed employee must keep records of the materials used and the work required for each assigned job. This responsibility helps maintain accurate job information and provides a clear record of the work carried out. The plumber should ensure that recorded details are accurate and properly communicated through the company’s work process.
7. Maintaining clean and organised work sites
Blue Peak Plumbing & Gas expects its employees to maintain professional standards when working at customers’ properties. The plumber must keep the work area neat during the job and clean up after completing the required tasks. Tools, materials and other work-related items should be handled responsibly. Leaving a property clean and orderly contributes to customer satisfaction and reflects positively on the company’s service standards.
8. Providing professional customer service
The successful candidate will regularly interact with clients at residential and commercial properties. It is important to communicate politely, listen to customer concerns and explain relevant plumbing issues in a clear and professional manner. The plumber should treat customers and their properties with respect while representing the company positively.

Skills and personal attributes
The ideal candidate should have strong practical problem-solving abilities and be comfortable handling different plumbing assignments. The work requires attention to detail, particularly when identifying faults, selecting materials and completing installations or repairs.
