• Bonus memberships: Access to Corporate Health memberships, Fitness Passport and professional memberships.
• Feel safe and supported: A safety-first culture and access to our 24/7 Employee Assistance Program.
• Leave for real life: Access to additional health and wellbeing, culture and diversity leave options.

What you’ll bring:

You’re someone who knows your way around a warehouse and takes pride in being reliable, hands-on, and part of a solid team. Additionally, you tick the following boxes:

• Demonstrated recent experience in a warehouse operator role or similar.
• A current ‘C’ class driver’s licence (manual preferred).
• A current forklift ticket.
• Understanding of material handling, storage, inventory, and warehousing methods.
• Knowledge of heavy vehicle combinations including operating requirements, load restraint, and loading/unloading exclusion zones.

• Understanding of safety procedures including:
  • Workplace health and safety policies;
  • Electrical safety regulations;
  • Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL);
  • Chain of Responsibility Law (CoR);
  • Load Restraint Guidelines; and
  • Supply works practices.

What matters most? For us, it’s our values: We’re Safe – We Belong – We Grow – We Deliver. If you’re going to be a part of our team, these should matter to you, too.
