- Overseeing loading and unloading of grain trucks, and weighbridge operations (weighing trucks in accordance with mass limits)
- Sampling and assessing grain quality on receivals and out-loads, ensuring compliance with quality standards
- Coordinating and preparing for area maintenance and pest control teams to deliver required services
- Identifying and reporting on maintenance requirements, and maintaining site presentation and standards

Perks:
- Genuine leadership autonomy within a well-established, family-owned business
