Warehouse Operator - Afternoon Shift

At NZ Sugar we're proud to produce one of New Zealand's most iconic brands. Behind every bag of sugar is a dedicated team working together to ensure our products are safely stored, picked, loaded and delivered to customers across the country.

We're looking for a Warehouse Operator with 'get up and go' who enjoys hands-on work, values safety, and takes pride in doing a great job every day.

This role is part of our afternoon shift team, operating Monday to Friday from 2.30pm to 10.00pm, giving you your weekends free.

About the role

As a Warehouse Operator, you'll play a key role in managing the storage and distribution of our products. No two days are the same, and you'll be involved in a variety of warehouse activities, including:

• Forklift and reach truck operation (you must have a current forklift licence).
• Picking, packing and loading customer orders.
• Inventory and stock control.
• Container and truck loading.
• Record keeping and basic computer-based tasks.
• Maintaining high housekeeping standards.
• Supporting a strong health and safety culture.
• Working closely with production, logistics and warehouse teams.

About you

You turn up ready to get stuck in, take ownership of your work and enjoy working as part of a high-performing team. You're dependable, safety-conscious and motivated to do quality work, while continuously looking for better ways of getting the job done.

Ideally, you'll bring:

• Previous warehouse or manufacturing experience.
• Forklift experience (counterbalance and/or reach truck preferred).
• Good attention to detail and accuracy.
• Great communication skills.
• A positive attitude and willingness to learn.
• Physical fitness for manual handling tasks.

What's in it for you

• A competitive hourly rate and a number of fantastic benefits - company superannuation, medical insurance, free parking, fully equipped gym and access to a personal trainer, community volunteering.
• A permanent full-time role, with a stable and well-established NZ business.
• Supportive, team focused culture.
• Ongoing training and development and career pathways.

We're building a team of people who care about safety, support their teammates and want to be part of a business with a long history and a strong future. If you're looking for more than "just another warehouse job" and want a role where your contribution genuinely matters, we'd love to hear from you.

Note: all successful applicants will be required to undertake a pre-employment medical including a drug and alcohol test.

Applications close: Friday 4 September.
