Job Description

AKD seeks an experienced and driven individual to join our team in the position of Area Manufacturing Manager of our Dry Mill, reporting to the Production Manager. This position will lead the Caboolture Dry Process team, focused on creating a zero-harm safety culture, driving a high performing team and executing on performance expectations.
