WASTE OPERATOR

Like talking to people? Comfortable using a computer? Then Programmed wants to hear from you!

We have a short term role starting immediately working through to Christmas - minimum 3 days per, occasional weekend work may be required.

We're on the hunt for a Waste Operator to support the Waste & Recycling Facility in Muswellbrook. This isn't your average "sit behind a desk all day" role. One minute you'll be helping a local customer find the right waste stream, the next you'll be operating a weighbridge, and keeping the site tidy

What's in it for you?

- Work outdoors and indoors
- Variety every day
- Great team environment
- Local Muswellbrook region role
- Opportunity to gain industry qualifications
- Be part of helping the community recycle and reduce landfill

What You'll Be Doing

- Operating the public weighbridge and recording customer loads
- Welcoming customers with a friendly attitude and helping them dispose of materials correctly
- Processing EFTPOS and cash transactions
- Issuing receipts and completing daily reconciliations
- Identifying waste streams and directing customers accordingly
- Maximising recycling and resource recovery opportunities
- Assisting customers with mulch, woodchip and Reuse Shop purchases
- Maintaining a clean and tidy facility
- Operating plant and equipment (where qualified)




- Supporting site safety and security procedures
- Following WHS requirements and contributing to a safe workplace

What We're Looking For

You don't need to be a waste expert already, but you'll ideally have:

✔ Strong customer service skills

✔ Basic computer skills (Microsoft Office and data entry)

✔ Cash handling or retail experience

✔ A safety-first mindset

✔ A willingness to work outdoors in all conditions

✔ A Class C Driver's Licence or higher

✔ White Card (or ability to obtain)

✔ Waste industry or operational experience highly regarded
