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:
Basic computer skills (Microsoft Office and data entry)
Cash handling or retail experience
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
Who we are
As one of Australia's largest employers, we work with great companies all around Australia and New Zealand to give you the best opportunities to work when and where you want to.
At Programmed, we are committed to creating a safe and inclusive workplace which values and respects diverse styles, backgrounds, experiences and perspectives.
We welcome and encourage women, people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descent and people from diverse backgrounds to apply.
