About Company
WorkinAUSX is a marine-focused social enterprise connecting skilled tradespeople with the organisations building, maintaining, and repairing Australia's marine fleet.
We exist because the marine industry depends on skilled hands. From commercial fishing vessels to offshore platforms, defence ships to superyachts, every vessel that leaves an Australian port has been welded, fabricated, and fitted out by tradespeople who know their craft. Boilermakers sit at the core of that work. Without them, nothing floats.
Australia's marine trade workforce is under pressure. An ageing cohort of experienced fabricators, growing demand from shipbuilding programmes, and a shortage of qualified tradespeople entering the sector have created a gap that employers are struggling to fill. WorkinAUSX was built to close it.
