Merge Mechanical Services has wrapped a successful two-day exhibition at the WA Mining Conference & Exhibition

(September 16-17, Perth Convention Centre), drawing significant interest from mining operations, civil construction firms, and skilled tradespeople across Western Australia.

Operating from Booth D125 the Perth-based mechanical services company captured qualified leads and fielded strong recruitment interest from experienced diesel mechanics and hydraulics specialists.

What Merge Mechanical Showcased

Merge Mechanical presented its core service offerings to mining, construction, and farming sector representatives:

  • 24/7 on-site breakdown response — Immediate dispatch of qualified HD mechanics with mobile tooling and diagnostics

  • Mobile hydraulic repair — OEM-quality hose assembly, repair, and diagnostics on-site, reducing downtime from days to hours

  • Labour hire solutions — Short and long-term skilled support for FIFO-ready professionals

  • OEM-level diagnostics — Caterpillar, Komatsu, Hitachi support with on-site capability

Industry Response: Overwhelming Interest

"The response was overwhelming," said Lloyd Jongwe, Managing Director of Merge Mechanical.

"We came to have real conversations with mining operations about their actual challenges. And we came to recruit. The calibre of interest from experienced mechanics and hydraulics specialists was exactly what we needed."

The exhibition underscored critical industry needs: equipment downtime, labour shortages, and the demand for reliable, skilled technical support on remote WA sites.

Labour Shortage Creating Opportunities for Skilled Tradespeople

Western Australia is facing an acute shortage of skilled diesel mechanics and hydraulics specialists. The mining conference highlighted this reality as experienced tradespeople attracted strong interest from industry operators.

Merge Mechanical came with open positions across multiple trades:

  • Heavy Diesel Mechanics

  • Hydraulics Specialists

  • Labour Hire (FIFO-ready professionals)

The interest we got from quality tradespeople was significant," said Damian, Merge's Field Operations Lead.

People want to work somewhere that values development, safety, and culture. Not just profit extraction. We're building that.
