Ongoing growth has created the opportunity for an additional team member to join this successful flower growing operation.

There are so many good things to say about this company - they are well established and progressive - they pride themselves on being a good employer, for offering great employment conditions, and for having a low staff turnover.

Crops are grown all year round (under cover) - the summer months will see you starting around 6am, and later during winter. The work is typically Monday to Friday.

  • A good level of mechanical aptitude and an ability to use a variety of vehicles and machinery
