Visy is powering the circular economy, closing the loop between packaging, remanufacturing and recycling. Over 75 years, we've grown to 7,000 employees and 150 global operations –predominately in Australia and New Zealand.

Visy Glass has a wealth of experience in crafting pure, sustainable and iconic glass packaging for many of the world's best-known food and beverage brands. We are proud to provide high quality glass packaging for beer, wine, spirits, food, non-alcoholic beverages and dedicated to exceed our customers' expectations and fuel consumers' desire for glass.

We are offering the opportunity to work in a Multi-Skilled Operator capacity on a permanent full time basis on a 3-on 2-off 7 day rotating night-afternoon-day shift roster.

You will be required to work in a hot and demanding environment, forming each bottle to the required standards. At times the manufacturing process will require performing minimal heavy lifting with support from other team members and lifting devices. If you’re someone that doesn’t mind a bit of manual handling and getting your hands dirty, then you’ll fit right in! The role also requires you to work in the ‘cold end’ part of the process working with inspection and packaging equipment performing quality and other procedural checks - ensuring our customers and end consumers receive the very best possible glass containers.

You will initially start on day shift spending a few weeks learning the basics and fundamentals of the role before moving to your rotating shift roster.

Your responsibilities will include, but not be limited to:

• Operation of the forming machines including regular checks, lubrication and changing of components and ancillary equipment, and troubleshooting;
• The operation and upkeep of inspection and packaging equipment;
• Glass quality checks and rectification of faults;
• Monitoring production parameters and data entry;
• Continuous improvement and 5S practices;
• Forklift driving and pack centre operation;
• Safety checks and general housekeeping;
• 24/7 manufacturing facility – working a 3-on 2-off night-afternoon-day rotating shift roster.

What you will bring to the team:

You will ideally hold extensive experience within a manufacturing or industrial environment, being able to demonstrate a very strong mechanical aptitude. Whilst not essential, workers with a trade and/or glass manufacturing background will be looked on favourably.

You are fit to perform a range of physical tasks, including standing, walking and lifting – all in a safe and considered manner. You’re a good communicator and have the ability to work well under pressure.

You’ll be able to work independently and use your initiative to get things done, at the same time, enjoy working as part of a team. No job is too small, you will be able to adapt to changes in work loads and keen to learn new skills, processes and procedures.

What you’ll love when you join us:

• Access to a range of health, wealth, and lifestyle services and discounts.
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP) support.
• Opportunities for further training and career advancement within the company
