  • Prepare and organise samples for laboratory testing with precision and care.

  • Maintain accurate records and ensure quality control at every stage of processing.

  • Operate forklifts safely (where licensed) to move and manage core trays.

  • Work outdoors for extended periods in varying weather conditions, including extreme heat.

  • Collaborate with the team to meet production targets and deadlines on a 12-hour shift roster.
