What we’re looking for
The key requirement is previous manufacturing experience.
You’ll also need:
Proven and previous experience within a production environment
A solid work ethic and reliability

A good sense of urgency and ability to keep up with production
Good personal presentation and hygiene

Most importantly, we want someone who understands why processes matter. Our clients are continuing to lift standards across their operation, so they value people who bring good habits from previous manufacturing environments and aren’t afraid to raise concerns or suggest improvements.
Hours
Multiple roles with differing shift patterns - dayshift, afternoon or nightshift - you need to demonstrate an element of flexibility to be considered for these roles.
Some roles are split shifts throughout the week; some roles are 10 hours per day. You need to be physically fit to perform these roles.
The opportunity is initially casual/temporary, with the potential to develop into a permanent position for the right person.
Pre-employment requirements
Successful applicants will be required to complete our pre-employment process, which may include:
- Reference checks with recent managers/supervisors
- Ministry of Justice check
- Pre-employment drug testing
- Site induction and assessment
