Junior Sales Coordinator

About Us

For over 50 years, Elephants Foot has been a driving force in Australia's waste and recycling industry. Beginning in the 1970s with garbage bags for kerbside waste, we quickly grew into a leader with our first cardboard compactors in 1976.

Since then, we have evolved within the industry to become a national leader in waste consultancy, chute system design, equipment solutions, and operational waste management solutions across all sectors.
