We offer a competitive hourly rate of $32-$34 per hour, with the potential to earn an additional $360 per fortnight through our prawn farming allowance. This means that our successful candidate can expect to earn approximately $48-$52 per hour, making this a highly attractive opportunity for those looking to advance their careers in the aquaculture industry.
