Production Team Member - Specialty MushroomsWe're a growing specialty mushroom farm based in Craigieburn, operating from a purpose-built indoor cultivation facility using automated production equipment and controlled growing environments.We're looking for a reliable, practical and hands‐on person to join our small production team.This is not just a packing or general labouring position.
You'll be involved across the production process, learning to operate equipment, prepare materials, handle production batches and keep work areas and machinery clean and organised.No mushroom-growing experience is required.

You will need to be comfortable with repetitive tasks, being on your feet and regularly lifting and handling materials up to approximately 20 kg.Who We're Looking ForYou don't need experience in mushroom growing.You may have previously worked in manufacturing,



food production, machine operation, warehousing, agriculture, trades or another hands‐on environment.More important to us is that you:Turn up reliably and on timeAre comfortable operating and working around machineryHave good practical and problem-solving abilityTake pride in keeping equipment and work areas cleanCan follow a process consistently without needing constant supervisionNotice when something doesn't look or sound right and are willing to speak upAre physically capable and comfortable with hands‐on workAre willing to learn new equipment and processesWork well as part of a small teamHave a current driver's licence and reliable transportA forklift licence, previous machine-operation experience or mechanical/trade experience would be useful, but isn't essential.HoursThe position will initially be approximately 3-4 days per week, with hours varying somewhat according to the production schedule.There is potential for hours and responsibility to increase as production expands.For the right person, we would like this to develop into a longer-term role with the opportunity to take greater ownership of production and potentially progress into a senior or leading‐hand position as the team grows.About UsWe're building a modern Australian specialty mushroom operation in Craigieburn.Our facility combines controlled-setting growing with automated production equipment, and we're still at a stage where a good person joining the team can have a genuine impact on how the operation develops.We're a small team, so we're looking for someone who wants to contribute rather than simply complete a list of tasks.If you're practical, reliable, enjoy working with equipment and like the idea of learning something a little different, we'd like to hear from you.
