Put your counterbalance skills to work moving 12-metre pipe, on a six to eight week contract with an immediate start.

Waypoint is partnering with a pipe manufacturing and processing business to appoint a Forklift Operator on a temporary basis, based at their Brendale site.

The business is bringing on an extra pair of hands so the team can keep up with current workload without relying on overtime and weekend work.

The role

You’ll spend most of your day on a counterbalance forklift moving large-diameter, 12-metre lengths of pipe around the site. Much of the work is loading pipe into machinery, so finesse matters: you’ll need to place each load carefully and protect the equipment as you go.

Between forklift tasks, you’ll help out across different stations, including picking and palletising, building packaging systems, cleaning pipe with grinders and processing material. Almost every job involves the forklift in some way, and the rest can be taught quickly. You’ll report to the Operations Manager.

What is on offer

- Monday to Thursday 7am to 4pm, and Friday 7am to 2pm,



with no weekend work
- $35-$40/hour
- Occasional overtime at time and a half
- An immediate start on a six to eight week contract, running through to the Christmas shutdown on Friday 18 December
- Potential to pick up again in the new year, depending on workload and team fit

What the business is looking for

This role suits a confident forklift operator who is happy to move around the site and picks up new tasks quickly.

- A current forklift licence (LF), with solid counterbalance experience
- Experience handling pipe or long, heavy loads is highly regarded
- Precision and care when loading around machinery
- Willingness to help across picking, palletising, grinding and processing. Experience in these areas is helpful but not essential
- Availability to start immediately
