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.

• Collaboration Crew: Work closely with the shift team to keep operations running smoothly and safely.

• Safety Guardian: Show a strong commitment to safety.
