Work closely with the Transport & Logistics Manager, Farm Manager and Harvest Coordinator to keep turf moving from paddock to customer
Follow all company safety procedures and transport requirements, including Chain of Responsibility obligations

Why Coolabah Turf?
At Coolabah, you're not just moving pallets around a yard.
You're part of the team that gets a quality, freshly harvested lawn from our paddocks to someone's backyard, sporting facility, school or commercial site.
You'll work alongside a hands‐on team where everyone plays their part, with the opportunity to build your skills across transport, logistics, turf production and farm operations.
