To be successful:
  • Must be available Monday - Friday, 38hrs minimum

  • Must be prepared to stand for 6 - 8 hours at a time
  • Must be comfortable working in hot, wet, and dusty environments
  • Must be able to sort through recycling waste (e.g., paper, plastics, aluminium)
  • Must thrive in a fast-paced environment
  • Must be available for occasional overtime and weekend work
  • Must be able to start ASAP
  • Must have reliable transport (limited public transport to site)
  • Must be willing to undergo and PASS a drug and alcohol test at our Labourpower Prestons office
  • No experience required - Training will be provided

All applicants must be willing to undergo a medical fitness assessment via FaceTime or in our office.
