Represent APPM professionally on customer sites and stay 100% loyal to our brand. Show up with a good attitude, solid workmanship and reliability. Qualifications & Licensing Minimum three years' industry experience. Sound understanding of hydraulic hose/fitting selection. A current NZ driver's licence (Class 1 minimum).
