Discover Your Next Role

We are currently seeking applications for a Boiler Assistant located at Inkerman Mill in the township of Home Hill. The Burdekin region offers a fantastic lifestyle with a warm climate, beautiful beaches and a range of recreational activities, making it a great place to live and work.

This is a permanent position in our sugar processing factory which requires shift work during the crushing season, including weekends and overtime; and day work only during the maintenance period. 

As a Boiler Assistant, you'll be at the core of our operations—overseeing critical equipment, ensuring optimal steam generation, and maintaining plant efficiency. This hands-on role will keep you engaged, where you'll uphold safety protocols, drive performance standards, and play a key role in supporting smooth operations throughout the fast-paced crushing season.

Your Role in Action

  • Teamwork on Tap: Collaborate closely with the Boiler Station & Shift Teams to keep operations running smoothly and safely.
  • Steam Power Control: Take charge of turbine and auxiliary equipment start-ups and shut-downs—keeping the plant's energy flow in check.
  • Bagasse System Mastery: Manage the vital Bagasse system with precision, ensuring smooth, efficient operations at all times.
  • Troubleshoot Like a Pro: Inspect, troubleshoot, and handle boiler and auxiliary systems, reporting abnormalities to make sure everything is running at it's best
  • Stay Ahead of Safety: Actively contribute to health and safety standards, from risk assessments to job safety analyses and participation in site safety programs.

The ideal candidate will have: 

  • Turbine Ticket
  • Working at Heights 
  • Confined Space 
  • Maintenance skills which are also highly desirable including any trade qualifications, Rigger, Dogger, and Scaffolder High Risk Work Licences 

Don't think you have all the necessary experience? We'd still love to hear from you if you have a keen attitude and are willing to learn new skills and we will develop you into our ideal candidate. 

The successful applicant will also be required to undertake further training to complete the appropriate Boiler Assistant station and maintenance competencies. 

Your Winning Combination

 At Wilmar you will be part of a team that values you and what you have to offer.  Attractive pay and benefits, including extra leave, flexible working arrangements and exclusive partner discounts strengthen the experience. We focus on safety, innovation and fostering a team spirit so why not join Wilmar for a fulfilling career and a supportive work environment.

We're looking for a hands-on "can do" person with solid team work, sharp attention to detail, and a dedication to high-quality standards. To be considered, you'll need the right skills, experience, and qualifications — including a High-Risk Work License for Turbine Operator (TO) and an Advanced Boiler Operator (BA) certification.

What Wilmar will offer you

At Wilmar, you'll be embraced as a valued member of our team, appreciated for your unique contributions. We offer competitive pay and benefits, including additional leave and superannuation entitlements and exclusive partner discounts. Our emphasis on safety and innovation creates a supportive work environment where you can thrive.
