Warehouse Assistant/Forklift Driver
Application Deadline: 6 September 2026
Department: Warehouse
Employment Type: Fixed Term - Full Time
Location: Villawood
Compensation: AU$28.00 - AU$28.50 / hour
Description
Work in the best-smelling warehouse in the world!
Who we are
You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there’s more to this great-smelling, partly employee-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good.
We put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what’s inside that counts - whether that’s an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone.
