Day Shift Rotomould Machine Operator

4 days ago


Dandenong, Australia Galloway International Australia Full time

**Casual DAY SHIFT worker needed for full training as rotational moulding machine operator (making polyethylene plastic products).**

We will start the successful applicant as CASUAL, with required work permissions (visa) for 38 hours per week. The long-term goal would be to make them permanent if they are a good fit. For that reason, the desire to stay for more than a year or two will be considered an advantage in any applicant.

**Training will be provided**. You will receive comprehensive training, but will ideally require high-level English comprehension to ensure you are trained safely and competently.

Our work environment is one of the best you'll find, with a reasonable workload, little interference from management, and no toxic workers -- quite a unique workplace The job is not overly physical, but will require physical fitness and stamina.

Polyethylene, along with the rotational moulding production process used to convert it into parts is completely safe (and food-grade), in terms of what will be handled and inhaled. The applicant will need to bring their own basic protective clothing: hi-vis work clothes and steel-capped work boots. However, we will provide other protective consumables: ear plugs, gloves, masks, etc (where needed).

**IMPORTANT**: If you do not consider yourself a hard worker with a good work ethic, please do not apply, we are not interested (Hopefully we can find a genuine worker in the sea of bludgers society pumps out these days ).

-----------------------
- Job duties (detailed)
-----------------------
- Produce polyethylene parts via the rotational moulding process

◦ Prepare each mould for cooking/production
▪ Clean mould
▪ Replenish mould features as needed (inserts, graphics, etc)
▪ Fill mould with correct weight of plastic resin (polyethylene)
▪ Close mould and check readiness before cooking

◦ De-mould finished parts
▪ Remove feature restrictors as needed
▪ Open mould
▪ Demould part
▪ Follow post-removal cooling procedure if required

◦ General duties
▪ Periodic mould cleaning
▪ Report mould or machine defects to engineering department
▪ Manage part cooking/cooling times and follow correct mould procedures to avoid part distortion and minimize rejected parts
▪ Quality check finished parts as needed (i.e. leak testing, distortion, cosmetic criteria, etc)
▪ Use of power tools, mainly pneumatic (in particular the pneumatic rattle gun used for opening/closing moulds)
▪ Use of hand tools as required
▪ Remove/install moulds on machine arms as required
▪ Balance moulds on machine arms as required using positioning and dedicated counterweights
▪ Complete required production paperwork

If the above looks foreign and confusing, that's because you still have to learn it It's certainly not rocket science, and you will have ample training. You also have your mouth for asking questions, and no one will get annoyed with you for doing that. A good brain (and more accurately, the usage of it) *will* make a difference to the worker you eventually become, naturally. Also, attention to detail is a huge plus.
