Job description

About Us

Beerfarm was founded in 2015 on a 1940s dairy farm in Metricup, Margaret River. Once an old dairy farm, we converted the hay shed into a tavern, built a brewery in the roundhouse and created a name for both a destination and a brewery that would serve straight‑up beer. Australian‑owned and stridently independent, it’s been built on grit, determination and the desire to do better. We are more than just a purveyor of high‑quality beer, ginger beer, and cider. Our unique taphouse in Metricup, WA, has become a go‑to spot for both locals and travellers, serving 'paddock to plate' food experiences, and of course, great beer and good times. Plus, our new, cutting‑edge production facility in Perth is a game changer for the brand, as more fans discover our beers, ciders and more! In essence, we are a farm, a brewery, a hospitality venue. We are driven to learn and progress as a team, continue doing things a little left of centre and make sure to have fun along the way. 'Cultivating Good Times' is what we're all about and we're on the hunt for team members who want to come along for the ride!

About The Role

Based in our Perth facility, the casual Production Assistant provides hands‑on support across all areas of the production site. Reporting to the Supply Chain Manager, you will help the Production Team keep the brewery clean, safe and running efficiently, getting stuck into a mix of cleaning, cellar, packaging and warehousing tasks.

You Will Also:

• Keep production and storage areas clean, including floors, walls, the outside of tanks and fermenters, the cool room and outdoor areas;
• Follow CIP procedures for transfer lines, fermentation vessels and bright beer vessels;
• Help with kegging and canning under supervision, and safely move, lift and stack full and empty kegs;
• Support cellar tasks such as yeast offs, dry hopping and yeast handling, and take FV samples and record phys chem data;
• Rotate, prepare and stock brewing raw materials for the next day's and the following week's production;
• Help with maintenance on production equipment, keep tools and consumables organised, and report any maintenance or safety issues.

About You

We have come from all walks of life and different corners of the world. Some of us came from beer, some from good times and some simply from our parents, and we all believe in doing things differently and doing them right. To be the perfect addition to our team, you will have a passion for all things beer and be happy getting your hands dirty in a busy production environment.

You Will Also:

• Be ready to live and breathe Beerfarm's values of Genuine, Belonging, Considered and Pioneering;
• Have a positive, proactive, 'can do' attitude and be a good human who supports the team culture;
• Be comfortable with physical, hands‑on work, and open to flexible hours and shift work;
• Have a strong eye for detail, record‑keeping and quality, with a good understanding of food and beverage hygiene and safety;
• Ideally have experience in a commercial brewery or beverage production environment, and hold a valid Forklift Licence (desirable, not essential).

Most importantly, you'll be a good person and an ambassador of the brand who deserves to join this exceptional team.

About The Process

We are committed to improving the diversity of our teams and our industry. If you don't have the relevant experience but are part of a group that is under‑represented in the beer industry, we would love to hear from you. We want to provide a diverse and inclusive workplace, and we'd love to hear from people who want to be part of that.
