About the role

This is a hands on role for someone who’s comfortable around plant, production, and outdoor work.

• WTR
• An unwavering commitment towards living safely with a safety record to match
• Passion for the quarrying industry and willingness to learn and develop new skills
• Good attitude toward the care and maintenance of machinery

• Maintain stockpiles, plant areas, and workspaces to a clean, tidy, and safe standard.
• Follow site procedures, identify hazards, and actively support safety, environmental, and quality expectations.
• Work closely with the team to deliver good service, respond to customer needs, and keep work moving.
