Finlayson is on the lookout for a reliable, energetic team player to join our Trade Yard in East Brisbane, Queensland.

This is a casual role with a roster across Monday to Sunday, perfect for someone who enjoys physical work, variety in their day, and helping tradies and builders get what they need - fast! You'll be doing everything from picking and packing orders, loading trucks, driving forklift and keeping the yard in top shape, to delivering top-notch service to our customers.

What you'll be doing

  • Keeping stock organised and deliveries accurate

What you will bring:

  1. A current forklift licence
  2. A strong work ethic and a can-do attitude
  3. Great communication skills and a team-first mindset
  4. Timber and hardware knowledge is handy but we'll teach you if you're keen to learn
  5. Physically fit and ready to be on your feet all day
  6. A sharp eye for detail and a sense of urgency
  7. A safety-focused mindset and willingness to comply with all WHS requirements
