We're looking for a practical, reliable person who enjoys working with their hands, solving problems and taking ownership of jobs to support day‑to‑day processes to run smoothly.

This role includes a mix of deliveries, workshop repairs, equipment installations, warehouse activities and general operational support.

  • Loading, unloading and transporting products and equipment safely.
  • Mixing and packing products following established procedures.
  • Assisting with the installation of equipment and systems on customer sites.
  • Repairing, maintaining and troubleshooting pumps and associated equipment.
  • Supporting warehouse operations, stock movement and general operational tasks.
  • Operating a forklift once trained and certified.
  • Maintaining a safe, organised and tidy work environment.
What we're looking for
  • Current Class 5 NZ Driver Licence.
  • Mechanical ability and practical problem‑solving skills.
  • Experience in a trade, manufacturing, maintenance or similar hands‑on environment.
  • Comfortable using tools and fixing equipment.
  • Reliable, self‑motivated and willing to pitch in where needed.
  • Good communication skills and a strong commitment to health and safety.
  • Forklift experience would be useful but isn't essential.
  • Willingness to complete Dangerous Goods training.
Why this role?
  • A role with plenty of variety.
  • A mix of workshop, warehouse, delivery and customer site work.
  • Opportunity to learn new skills and broaden your experience.
  • Supportive team environment.
