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.
