Looking to apply your inventory and operational coordination skills in a purpose-driven organisation?

The Production Controller supports our teams to ensure internal stock transactions are completed accurately and efficiently, and that we get quality fresh produce to where it needs to be. Based in our Altona warehouse, this role works closely with Warehouse, Logistics and other internal stakeholders, contributing to the coordination of inventory and warehouse operations.

Why Foodbank?

Whether it’s everyday emergencies or in times of crisis, Foodbank Victoria has been providing vital food relief to vulnerable Victorians for 96 years. We deliver food to people who need it in three different ways: in partnership with our charity partners, through schools and via our regional Community Food Centres.

Across our network of over 450 charity partners and 1400 schools throughout Victoria, we have distributed over 25.1 million meals in the last 12 months and are currently feeding 76,000 Victorians a day.

While supporting our charity and school partners is at the core of what we do, as the state’s dedicated emergency food relief organisation, we’re also here to assist Victorians through natural disasters, pandemics and the ‘invisible disaster’ caused by the ongoing cost of living crisis.
