TradeConnex talent on site in Karratha

Labour hire for Karratha projects

Karratha is one of the Pilbara’s main centres and the base for heavy industry on the Burrup Peninsula and around Dampier, from gas processing to ammonia production and port operations. Sites are remote, the heat is hard on people and plant, and inductions and tickets are strictly enforced, so anyone you bring in needs to be ready for those conditions.

From May to December 2024, TradeConnex supplied more than 15 skilled talent to the Yuri Renewable Hydrogen Project, a first-of-its-kind development at Karratha. Yuri combines an 18MW solar PV system, a 10MW electrolyser and an 8MW battery energy storage system to produce 640 tonnes of renewable hydrogen a year, which goes to Yara’s ammonia facility. Our people supported installation and setup, and we handled the logistics of getting them to a remote site when they were needed, with all safety requirements met.

We source electricians, mechanical trades, riggers, scaffolders, operators and labourers for construction and industrial work across Karratha and the wider Pilbara. Give us your roster, start date and site requirements and we’ll match people to them. For the rest of the state, see labour hire in Perth.
