Food Manufacturing | Epping VIC | Casual (potential for full time) | $33.10 per hour
Love food, variety and a team that has fun? Come make something new nearly every day.
At Healthy Food Crew, no two weeks look the same. We make food for both pets and people: new products for startup health-food brands launching in Australia and overseas, plus lines you'll find on major supermarket shelves. One day you might be blending nut butters, the next you're glazing, filling or packing a brand-new product that's about to hit the market.
We're a small, hands-on crew in Epping, and we're looking for our next casual Production Team Member, with the potential to go full-time.
What you'll be doing
Making the product
- Weighing wet and dry ingredients
- Blending raw ingredients, powders and nut butters
- Running product through depositors, mixers and filling machines
- Glazing, filling and packing
- Loading and unloading ovens and cooling racks
- Helping our machine operators where needed
Packing and dispatch
- Packing finished product into bags, boxes and pouches
- Date-coding and labelling
- Receiving and putting away stock
- Loading and unloading deliveries, and stacking pallets for shipping
Keeping the place running
- Washing down equipment and cleaning workstations
- Getting things ready for the next day's production
- Keeping packing and storage areas tidy, emptying bins and restocking amenities
- Sharing the cleaning of staff areas on a rotating roster
- Joining team meetings
And yes, singing and dancing on the floor is welcome.
Why you'll like working here
