Description

Our Australian Made Story:

For over 85 years, we've been an integral part of the iconic Australian design landscape. Just a few short years after Australians became "happy little Vegemites," families were spreading their toast in kitchens and on tables crafted by us. We've come a long way since then.

Today, you'll find Laminex surfaces everywhere—hospitals, shopping centres, restaurants, and homes. Our team is dedicated to designing products that enable all Australians to create beautiful spaces.

Where Your Story Starts:

Due to recent business growth, we are excited to announce an opening for an enthusiastic, self-starting Forklift Driver / Storeperson at our Sydney Distribution Centre in Prospect, NSW.

This role prioritises manual picking (80% of the time) with forklift duties (20% of the time). You will be required to perform manual lifting/labour duties, and your primary responsibilities will include:

  • Loading and unloading trucks

  • Racking and manually picking orders (non-forklift work)

  • General forklift duties

Working on the afternoon shift, Monday to Friday, in a full-time position. Standard hours for this role are 3:54 PM to midnight, with occasional overtime. All afternoon shifts receive a 15% loading.

The Role You'll Play:

We are seeking a people-focused, safety-minded individual to join our leading business in a pivotal role.

The ideal candidate will have:

  • An LF Forklift licence (required) with a minimum of 12 months experience loading and unloading trucks

  • Willingness to perform manual lifting and picking duties

  • Experience with oversized/non-standard pallet-sized goods

  • Ability to work autonomously

  • Strong customer service skills

  • Physical fitness, as manual lifting is involved

  • Exceptional awareness of workplace safety

Rewards & Advantages:

  • A generous 26-week paid paternity leave policy, followed by a supportive 4-day week at 80% capacity

  • A vibrant work-life in a clean, safe, and supportive workplace

  • Exclusive discounts on products from Fletcher Building's esteemed brands

  • A great hourly rate plus afternoon shift penalty rates
