This is a physically demanding role involving repetitive lifting, manual handling, and unloading shipping containers.

While these positions typically work 6:00am to 2:06pm, hours may occasionally vary due to shipping container delays, changes to vessel schedules, or operational requirements. Applicants should be flexible and understand that workflow can fluctuate based on container arrivals.

These positions are required to support our peak season, which generally runs through to February. However, employment may extend beyond this period depending on business requirements.
