Timber Machinist/Planer Operator
Come and work in the beautiful and sunny Nelson/Tasman region for a great timber remanufacturing company.
We want to look after our team, so we can provide relocation assistance in the form of travel funds and helping you find suitable accommodation for you or your family.
Genia (previously Motueka Lumber Company) makes cut-to-length and custom radiata pine componentry and mouldings. We aim to add value to our products and continuously improve our processes.
Manufacturing a range of product lines, our planers have frequent changeovers, giving operators more variety of work.
Responsibilities include:
- Setting up and operating machines
- Meeting quality standards and productivity targets
- Completing maintenance and general troubleshooting of machines
- Ensuring documentation is completed and correct
- Assisting with toolroom operations as required
Hours/days of work: 5am – 1:30pm (Monday - Friday) - who doesn't love an early knock off? or 1:15pm - 11:30pm (Monday - Thursday, 39 hours) - that's a 3 day weekend! Additional hours of work on Fridays are also available.
A timber machining qualification and/or equivalent planer machinery experience is required.
There are many other perks to working here, including a free dinner once a week, free/discounted wood and products, and a profit share scheme, to name a few.
