Gurneys Cider is a family-owned cidery on a hillside just outside Foster, with views over Wilsons Promontory. We make traditional, small batch cider using fruit from our own heritage orchard, and we're looking for a proactive, trade-qualified technician to look after equipment reliability, line performance and preventative maintenance across our production facility.
The role
- Inspect, service and repair our facility and production equipment, including cider making machinery, fruit presses, large and small commercial pumps and small motors, to keep downtime to a minimum
- Operate, troubleshoot and calibrate our canning and bottling lines, labelling systems and laser etching and coding equipment
- Review our production workflows, remove bottlenecks and improve our standard operating procedures
- Work with the production team to plan and adjust daily and weekly packaging schedules around maintenance
- Champion workplace health and safety, conduct risk assessments, maintain machine safeguarding and make sure all electrical repairs meet regulatory standards
What you’ll bring
- A full electrical licence (A Grade or equivalent trade certification)
- Proven electromechanical maintenance experience, including servicing machines and small motors
- Hands‑on experience operating, diagnosing and repairing automated canning, bottling, labelling and laser marking machinery
- A sharp eye for detail, a root‑cause approach to problem‑solving and a drive to improve how things are done
- The organisation to prioritise tasks in a rapid‑paced environment and fit maintenance around production runs
Why Gurneys
- Full time role paying $75k to $95k a year
- A role that combines electrical and mechanical work with a hand in making the cider itself
- A hardworking team with a real passion for the craft
