If you enjoy working with machinery, solving problems on the fly, and being part of a team making stuff happen, this could be your next move.

Why makes this role good for you?

  • A fantastic team who value your input, are supportive and forward-thinking.
  • Learn valuable, in-demand technical skills
  • Competitive payrates and shifts designed to maximise a great work life balance
  • Stability + opportunity to grow your career in a growing industry

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be right in the action—running extrusion lines, fine-tuning processes, and making sure top-quality ducting products roll out the door. This is a hands-on role where your attention to detail and technical know-how really matter.

  • Operating and adjusting plastic extrusion machinery like a pro
  • Setting up lines - start-ups, shutdowns, changeovers
  • Manufacturing products to specification
  • Keeping an eye on quality with measurements and visual checks
  • Troubleshooting issues
  • Performing basic maintenance and keeping things moving
  • Tracking production data and process tweaks
  • Keeping your workspace clean, safe, and organised

What You Bring to the Table

  • Experience in manufacturing - plastics/extrusion experience an advantage
  • A solid grasp of how machines and processes work
  • Ability to read and interpret technical drawings
  • Good mechanical instincts and problem-solving skills
  • A keen eye for detail and quality
  • Reliability—especially during long shifts
  • Team spirit and a willingness to learn

If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and join a team building something real, apply now through RobLawMax Recruitment and take the next step in your production career.
