Description
Production Operator (Multiple Positions) – BioMar Australia
Due to continued internal growth, BioMar Australia is recruiting multiple Production Operators to join our Production team.
This is a hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys practical work, takes pride in doing things properly, and turns up ready to contribute every day. We’re looking for people with a good attitude, who are hardworking and reliable — the kind of teammate others can count on.
The opportunity
As a Production Operator, you will support the end-to-end production process — from raw material handling through processing and extrusion, to packing, paletizing and finished goods movement. You’ll operate equipment, complete checks and records, and help maintain safe, clean and efficient work areas across the plant.
Key responsibilities
Production & plant operation
Operate production equipment to meet daily output and quality targets, including extrusion, dosing, grinding and material handling
Complete routine start-up/shut-down tasks and production checks
Perform basic, low-level maintenance within your training and capability
Follow work instructions and accurately complete production records
Packing area responsibilities
Operate packing equipment and support line changeovers as required
Weigh, pack and label product to specification
Check packaging quality and label accuracy, and report any issues
Pelletize, wrap and prepare finished goods for storage/dispatch
Maintain packing consumables and keep the packing area organised and efficient
Materials handling & forklift operation
Load, unload and move materials and finished goods safely using a forklift
Store materials and finished goods correctly and maintain good stock discipline
Follow safe handling requirements, including MSDS and site procedures
Safety, hygiene & housekeeping
Maintain clean and tidy work areas, including production and packing zones
Keep tools and equipment clean, serviceable and stored correctly
Identify hazards, report incidents/near misses, and follow WHS requirements at all times
Work collaboratively with Maintenance and the wider team to keep the plant running safely and smoothly
What we’re looking for
Must have
Full working rights in Australia
Current driver’s licence
Current forklift licence
The personal qualities that matter most
A good attitude — cooperative, respectful and willing to learn
Hardworking — you get stuck in and see tasks through
Reliable — punctual, consistent, and takes responsibility
Team-focused with clear communication and a practical approach to problem-solving
Experience
Experience in a manufacturing/production environment is highly regarded (food, feed, FMCG, chemical or similar), but attitude and reliability are just as important.
Why BioMar?
You’ll be joining a business in growth mode, where good people are valued and where doing quality work safely is non-negotiable. As part of that growth, we’re moving to a 7 days on / 7 days off / 7 nights on / 7 days off roster — If you value predictable blocks of time off and a clearer work–life rhythm, a supportive team, and the chance to build your skills as the site expands, we’d like to hear from you.
