Are you ready for a hands-on role in a great team environment? As an Evaporator Operator at Wilmar Sugar & Renewables, you'll be responsible for operating the Juice Circuit. This role works closely with other members of the shift team and Mill management.

This permanent position is based at Plane Creek Mill in Sarina. Located in North Queensland, Sarina offers a laid-back lifestyle, with stunning beaches and exciting outdoor adventures right at your doorstep. Whether you're into hiking, water sports, or just chilling by the beach, Sarina has it all waiting for you.

During the crushing (June - December), this position operates on a continuous rotating shift roster, which may include weekends and occasional overtime. Once the crushing is complete and the Mill enters the maintenance period (Jan - May), the role switches to a day shift schedule with RDOs most Fridays.

Your Role in Action

  • Smooth Operator: Monitor the Juice Circuit (including but not limited to Juice Heaters, Clarifiers, Filters, Evaporators and associated equipment) to ensure crushing of the cane is efficient and productive.
  • Collaboration Crew: Work closely with the shift team to keep operations running smoothly and safely.
  • Clear & Concise: Provide regular and accurate feedback to Mill management on station performance and quality issues.
  • Safety Guardian: Show a strong commitment to safety.

Your Winning Combination

At Wilmar you will be part of a team that values you and what you have to offer. Attractive pay and benefits, including extra leave, flexible working arrangements and exclusive partner discounts strengthen the experience. We focus on safety, innovation and fostering a team spirit so why not join Wilmar for a fulfilling career and a supportive work environment.

We're looking for a hands-on "can do" person with solid teamwork, sharp attention to detail, and a dedication to high-quality standards.

What Wilmar will offer you

At Wilmar, you'll be embraced as a valued member of our team, appreciated for your unique contributions. We offer competitive pay and benefits, including additional leave and superannuation entitlements and exclusive partner discounts. Our emphasis on safety and innovation creates a supportive work environment where you can thrive.

** This position is eligible for the Employee Referral Bonus**
