Are you ready to be part of a fast-growing, innovative family farm and growing agribusiness that’s setting new standards in herb and produce production?

Hunt’s Harvest is a progressive, family-owned operation near Bundaberg. We combine the values of a family farm - teamwork, pride, and care - with the professionalism of a modern agribusiness, producing year-round hydroponic and field-grown herbs and produce for leading processors and market agents.

We’re looking for two A-players to join our team:

Harvest Operations Assistant

This is a pivotal role working closely with the Harvest Operations Manager to ensure harvest runs smoothly every day. You’ll be hands-on in the greenhouse and field, but also bring leadership, organisation, and attention to detail to get the best from our team.

Strong communication and leadership skills

Reliable, organised, and solutions-focused

Physically fit and able to work in greenhouse/field environments

Forklift licence preferred (or willingness to obtain)

Current driver’s licence required

Desire to grow with the business and take ownership of results

Skilled Farmhand

We’re after someone to support our outdoor crew's leading hand - reliable, practical, and self-driven. This role is broad and varied, perfect for someone who thrives in farming environments and wants to be part of a growing high-performance team.

Key responsibilities:

Daily crop care, irrigation, and general farm maintenance

Assist with planting, crop protection, and infrastructure repairs

Operate farm machinery and equipment as required

Work alongside the team to keep farm operations running smoothly

Take initiative to identify and fix problems before they escalate

What we’re looking for:

Practical farming or trade skills (machinery, irrigation, or mechanical an advantage)

Strong work ethic and reliability

Ability to work independently and as part of a team

Physically fit and hands-on

Positive attitude and willingness to learn

ChemCert accreditation an advantage

Current driver’s licence required

What We Offer

A secure, long-term role with a growing family agribusiness

On-the-job training and opportunities to upskill

A culture that values ownership, teamwork, and continuous improvement

Above-award pay rates for the right candidate

If you’re not afraid of hard work, want to be part of something bigger, and see yourself as an A-player ready to step up - we want to hear from you.
