Full-time or part-time, Monday to Friday, at our Bibra Lake Distribution Centre. Our operating hours are 6:00 am to 6:00 pm, with a range of shift options available.
We're seeking a full-time Processing Operator to join our Processing team. Reporting to the Workshop Manager – Processing, you'll keep our workshop and warehouse moving: putting away plate and remnants, supporting our laser and saw operations, and getting finished orders checked, packed and out the door. You'll make sure the right material is on the right machine at the right time, and that every order leaves to specification. This role suits someone who enjoys hands-on work, takes pride in a safe and tidy workplace, and likes learning new machinery.
We're happy to train the right person on additional production machinery as you develop.
You'll need a current forklift licence, and a Dogman's licence is recommended. You'll have intermediate knowledge of warehousing procedures, and experience with overhead gantry cranes and the safe use of lifting equipment. Knowledge of stainless steel products is highly regarded, as is an understanding of how to care for, maintain and handle them. You'll be comfortable reading and updating work orders, and using an app to despatch finished goods.
What we really value is how you work. We're after someone who is safety-minded, organised and reliable, who can prioritise tasks to meet production schedules, and who takes pride in quality. You'll work closely with the Processing team, our Scheduling & Nesting team, with a professional and respectful approach. If you pitch in to help teammates, take ownership of an order from plate to despatch rather than passing problems along, and enjoy learning new machines, you'll do well here.
Responsibilities are not limited to those listed above.
