We are a Co-operative created and owned by Aotearoa New Zealand dairy farmers. Since our beginnings, collaboration, innovation, and passion have enabled us to share the goodness of our dairy with the world. We're committed to caring for the land, our animals, and every drop of milk, producing nutritious food with safe, quality ingredients loved here in New Zealand and around the world.

Our Clandeboye site is one of Fonterra’s largest sites, employing over 1000 people. It is also home to some of our biggest dryers in the world. During peak season our Clandeboye site processes up to 13 million litres of milk every day.

As an experienced diesel mechanic, you’ll be confident identifying faults both with breakdowns on the road and during day-to-day workshop repairs. Your proactive approach will also see you driving continuous improvement initiatives across the workshop to improve tanker reliability. With a strong learning and development culture, this is an exceptional opportunity to join NZ’s largest Co-operative to expand your knowledge and skills.

This role operates on a 4 x 4 roster (2 days, 2 nights, 4 off) working 12-hour shifts.
