Timber. Machinery. A solid day’s work. If that sounds like your kind of environment, this could be right up your alley.

We’re looking for a Process Worker / Machine Operator to join a busy timber manufacturing operation in Mt Druitt. You’ll be hands‑on across the production process, operating machinery, handling and preparing timber, checking quality, and wrapping and strapping finished packs.
