Boolah is a vertically integrated agri-enterprise built on a legacy of hands-on farming, now leading sustainable practices, traceable supply chains and data-driven innovation across Australia. We’re proud of our culture: where curiosity is rewarded, collaboration is real, and meaningful contributions help us grow both our business and the agricultural sector.

- Assisting with routine irrigation maintenance and repairs
- Keeping accurate records of irrigation activities
- Operating farm machinery and equipment as required
- Assisting with general farm duties between irrigation runs

We’re looking for someone who is reliable, safety-focused and comfortable working outdoors in a physically active role. You will need good attention to detail, a practical approach to problem-solving and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
Previous irrigation, farming or machinery experience will be highly regarded. A willingness to learn, follow instructions and communicate effectively with the team is essential.
Flexibility to work hours that suit irrigation schedules, including weekends where required, is important.
