    A family member landed a job cleaning the tips of high-rises when he worked in a wall climbing gym. Someone just rocked up and asked him if he could cover someone else who was going on leave and he ended up in the job for a few months (left because of uni).

    Needs to be certified to climb (no idea what that cert is). All I remember was him using my x-ray machine to check the carabineers.

    • you have an x-ray machine?

    The high rise window cleaners are usually easily spotted on a regular basis in Melb CBD; perhaps stalk out a few of the central streets in Brisbane CBD and, if you can find them, have a direct conversation.

    Or you could just google and contact these guys as a start:

    Rope Access Technician is the name for the trade. If you throw that in google you’ll get all the information you need.

  • Thank you- am planning to do just that. Was hoping to speak to somebody who has actually been involved with this line of work.

  • The title of this thread terrifies me. Good luck in your efforts finding a job for your son
