If someone tells you they work in cold temperatures, you think about coolstores instead of ski fields? Perfect, this is the mindset we are looking for!

Join our coolstore team and assist in the efficient handling, storage, and dispatch of products in the coolstore.

About the job:

• Stacking boxes of cherries on pallets

• Check labels are accurate 

• Assist in maintaining accurate records of shipments, including packing lists and delivery notes

• Ensure high level of hygiene and safety standards

• Maintaining a clean and organised coolstore environment

• Work closely with your supervisor and other team members to ensure smooth and efficient workflow

As the summers are usually hot in Central Otago, it can be very refreshing to work in cold temperatures. You feel less exhausted compared to working in the sun and can still enjoy warm and sunny afternoons or evenings down at the lake.

When the season gets closer to its peak, we will run two shifts in the packhouse. You can choose to start working early in the morning (around 6am) and have the evening off or start later in the day and enjoy slow mornings.

About you:

• Ability to lift and move heavy pallets and goods safely

• Proactive and enthusiastic team player

• Experience in working in coolstores is preferred

• High attention to detail and strong prioritisation skills

• Outstanding communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to engage and motivate others

• A continuous improvement mindset – we like to push the status quo

About the benefits:

• Supportive and dynamic work environment

• Competitive wages

• Loyalty bonus if you stay the whole season and meet the attendance, punctuality and work ethic requirements

• Environment that encourages the free flow of ideas
