Cargo Handlers

1 month ago

Dunedin City Otago, New Zealand Port Otago Limited Full time

**Cargo Handlers**

Port Otago Group’s business comprises a regional container terminal, bulk port activities, cruise, and property investment and development. We service South Canterbury, Otago, and Southland, working with customers to streamline their supply chains. Our culture is hands-on, safety focused and encourages continuous improvement.

As a Cargo Handler your primary role is operating heavy machinery to transport containers around our terminal to connect with container vessels plus other duties in Port Chalmers and Dunedin. We are looking for women and men who are comfortable working outside in all weather conditions, at heights and can balance shift work with their lifestyle.

Previous experience operating heavy machinery will be highly regarded although this is not essential as full training will be provided for women and men who are enthusiastic about beginning a career in the logistics industry. Shortlisted applicants will be taken through a computer-based assessment initially to see if you have got what it takes to operate heavy machinery.

**Now let's be honest**:
**What's great about the job**:

- Competitive remuneration package on offer
- Health insurance paid for you and your partner and dependent children (valued at $4,000 p.a.)
- Superannuation matched up to 7% after 6 months service
- 5 weeks of annual leave
- Opportunities for upskilling and career development
- Work alongside and learn from a fantastic team
- An exceptional view from your workplace
- We are committed to providing a work environment in which everyone is included, treated fairly and with respect

**What's not so great**:

- You must be flexible to work either day, afternoon or night shifts over a week, including weekends and public holidays across any of our 3 shifts
- Port Otago is an essential service, so our team doesn’t stop
- Due to the nature of shipping and weather you will be allocated your shift on a daily basis
- Your days off may be staggered during the week

**Heads up**:

- A full clean NZ Drivers licence is essential
- A high standard of safety - not afraid to speak up
- You must be able to pass Ministry of Justice, ACC checks and a medical which includes a drug and alcohol test as part of our recruitment process
- Random drug and alcohol testing

**How do I apply?**

**Why move to Ōtepoti Dunedin?**

Ōtepoti Dunedin is renowned for its distinctly quirky character, wildly beautiful places and wildlife, and its vibrant urban culture. It’s full of hidden gems, including the pristine beaches of Dunedin and East Otago, right on your doorstep.

Port Otago’s Head Office is a 15-minute drive from Dunedin’s city centre, in the beautiful harbour-side village of Port Chalmers - a Port town full of rich history and charm. Port Chalmers has a strong creative community and an eclectic mix of galleries, café’s, restaurants and businesses, many housed in original historic buildings. The short trip out to Port Chalmers provides you with picturesque views of the Otago Harbour for the entire journey, not to mention the stunning office views from our workplace once you get here.

And, if you want to explore further afield, the beautiful Queenstown Lakes District and Central Otago wine region are only a short drive away.
