Join a Small, Successful Australian Manufacturer
If you're a mechanically minded Machine Operator who takes pride in your work and has exceptional attention to detail, this could be the perfect next step in your career.
We're partnering with a highly successful Australian manufacturing business based in Blacktown that has built an outstanding reputation for producing specialised products supplied throughout Australia and exported internationally. Despite its success, the company has retained the feel of a close-knit team where people genuinely enjoy coming to work and are valued for the contribution they make.
This is a rare opportunity to join a stable, growing business with a great culture, quality products, and long-term career security.
The Role
This is not a repetitive production role. You'll take ownership of a liquid filling production line, ensuring machinery operates efficiently, safely and to the highest quality standards.
Approximately 70–80% of the role is hands-on, making it ideal for someone who enjoys working with machinery, solving problems and keeping production running smoothly.
Key Responsibilities
  • Set up and adjust machinery for production runs
  • Operate and monitor liquid filling equipment
  • Troubleshoot mechanical issues and minimise downtime
  • Carry out preventative maintenance and routine servicing
  • Maintain production quality and accuracy
  • Coordinate external technicians when required
  • Operate forklift and reach truck
  • Assist with warehouse duties, deliveries and stocktakes
  • Ensure a clean, safe and organised work environment
About You
To be successful in this role, you'll have a strong mechanical aptitude, enjoy taking ownership of your work, and possess outstanding attention to detail.
You'll ideally bring:
  • Experience operating liquid filling machinery
  • Manufacturing, packaging or production experience
  • Strong mechanical and troubleshooting skills
  • Current forklift licence and practical experience
  • Experience using hand and power tools
  • A proactive and reliable work ethic
  • Current driver's licence
Most importantly, you'll be someone who notices the little things, takes pride in quality work, and enjoys being part of a supportive team environment.
What's On Offer?
✅ Full-time permanent position
✅ Monday to Friday – No shift work
✅ Small, friendly and supportive team
✅ Well-organised and clean facility
✅ Stable, growing Australian company
✅ Excellent long-term job security
✅ Opportunity to become the onsite machinery specialist
If you're looking for a role where your skills are valued, your attention to detail makes a real difference, and you can enjoy working with great people in a successful business, we'd love to hear from you.
