Excavator Operator Jobs in Brisbane

Brisbane is one of Australia's busiest excavator operator job markets. Roles in this category typically pay between $78,000 - $125,000 depending on experience, hours, and any endorsements you hold. Queensland transport employers run heavy freight to and from the Port of Brisbane, the Bowen Basin and Mt Isa mining corridors, and tourism-driven last-mile delivery on the Gold and Sunshine coasts.

To be considered for most excavator operator roles you'll usually need verifiable excavator competency or a VOC, civil or quarry experience, and a Construction White Card.
