Job Description

Location: Henderson Area, South of Fremantle, WA   
Salary:  $36 - $38 per hour perm + Super + Overtime 
Role Highlights:  This is a role for someone who enjoys practical work. You’ll be operating, adjusting, troubleshooting, and supporting production across a busy industrial processing plant with plenty of variety throughout the day.

Role Overview

You’ll be working across a bulk materials processing environment operating conveyors, mixers, vibrating equipment, screening systems, and associated machinery. This isn’t a “watch the machine and wait” type role. You’ll be expected to think ahead, monitor production closely, and step in when adjustments or repairs are needed.
The environment is industrial. Hot, dusty, noisy, and physically hands-on at times. But the team is experienced, leadership is practical, and the business is continuing to invest heavily into upgrades and site improvements.

Responsibilities:

• Operate and monitor industrial processing equipment
• Adjust process settings during production runs
• Troubleshoot faults and identify issues early
• Assist with cleaning, maintenance, and shutdown activities
• Support safe and efficient plant operations
• Complete production paperwork and batch records accurately
• Maintain housekeeping and site safety standards
• Work closely with production and maintenance teams

Candidate Profile 

This role suits someone who prefers being hands-on in a plant environment rather than standing behind a machine waiting for instructions. You’re mechanically minded, proactive, and comfortable working around industrial equipment and moving production parts.
You don’t need experience with this exact machinery, but you do need to understand how industrial environments operate and be comfortable around maintenance, troubleshooting, and process-driven production.

This could suit someone who has worked in:

• Processing plants or heavy manufacturing environments
• Chemical, food, feedmill, recycling, quarrying, rendering, or bulk materials operations
• Mechanical fitting, maintenance, repair, or shutdown work
• Industrial production environments where breakdowns, adjustments, and troubleshooting are part of daily work 

You’ll likely do well in this role if you:

• Have strong mechanical aptitude and enjoy fixing or adjusting equipment
• Can identify issues before they become bigger production problems
• Are comfortable working in hot, dusty, noisy environments
• Take ownership and keep your work area clean, safe, and organised
• Can multitask and stay aware of what’s happening across the plant
• Hold a Forklift Licence, or are willing to obtain one
• Are open to further training including EWP and Confined Space licences

Culture & Benefits 

You’ll be joining a well-established manufacturing business with a stable team and experienced leadership group. This is the type of environment where people work closely together, support each other, and take pride in keeping production moving.

• Full-time permanent opportunity (no casual work)
• Monday to Friday, hours: 6am - 2:30pm (Mon-Thurs), early finish Fridays
• Local role based south of Fremantle, Hendersen area. No FIFO or travel required
• Perm Wages: $36 - $38 per hour + overtime + super 
• Overtime opportunities available
• Training, support, and opportunity to grow internally
• Strong team culture with hands-on leadership
• Ongoing investment into plant upgrades and improvements
