Plant Operator - Acid Plant
About the Role
We're looking for an experienced Manufacture Operator to join the Acid Plant team at our Christchurch Works site where we manufacture, process and despatch fertiliser. You'll work alongside the Acid Plant Engineers to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the Sulphur Melter and Acid Plant, with a mix of hands-on operational tasks and plant data recording. You'll also transfer raw material using a loader. This role is a gateway to an Acid plant engineer position and has great scope for growing your career. By ensuring safe and efficient plant performance we're best placed to help our farmers/shareholders.
The role is on a rostered shift basis and will include some rostered weekend work.
About You
Given the work environment and nature of the role, it's essential you're physically fit, and mechanically minded. Ideally, you'll be comfortable at the controls of a loader and/or a forklift, but if not, we can provide the training to get you there if you have a positive, can-do attitude.
To be successful in the role, you will ideally:
- Have process plant or manufacture experience
- Be mechanically minded and computer literate
- Have previous experience operating Class 2 licenced loaders
- As a minimum you'll have a current class 1 drivers licence, but a class 2 licence will be an advantage
