About the role

We're hiring three food processing workers for a busy processing site in Seaview, Lower Hutt. The site is chilled, so you'll be working in a cool environment with full gear supplied.

You'll need to be comfortable in a chilled environment and on your feet all shift. Bring your food safety certificate; we'll verify it at the interview. Applicants need the right to work in New Zealand and two work references. Ongoing work for people who turn up and do a good job. Flexible rostering wherever we can manage it. If this sounds like you, apply today and tell us a little about your experience.
