Both roles can be quite challenging, but you will be surrounded by support people to teach, coach and assist you with everyday tasks. We have a strong team consisting of Feed Mill staff, Workshop staff and feed drivers.

**What are the shifts?**

There are two shifts, a day shift from 6am to 6pm and a night shift that starts at 6pm and runs through to 6am. Generally we run 12 hour shifts but sometimes feed demand can decrease, so there will be some 10 hour days.
