We are looking for seasonal labourer/s to join our team during our busy honey harvest and export bee season. Immediate start, with work available through to the end of April (subject to export order volumes this year). For honey harvesting, you will work with our Beekeepers in the field; this is very hot, heavy and tough physical work and you MUST be physically able and very strong to cope with it as you will be lifting heavy honey boxes while wearing a bee suit on hot sunny days.

Our base is in Waitoki, where your work day will start and end, but the field work is an outdoor job and you will be moving with the team daily around the Kaipara region and further afield as needed. For exports, you will work at our Waitoki base assembling export packages and other related work; this work is repetitious and requires a good attention to detail and motivation to keep productivity up to required levels. Its a production line.

To fit into our fun, hardworking and driven team you must be enthusiastic, self-motivating and have a team-player attitude. You will also be: Fit and healthy (physical strength is needed) Able to follow process accurately and with attention to detail Very tidy, for yourself, with our assets that you use and in your work itself Honest and open Non-smoking/vaping (our workplace at the base, in our vehicles and in the field is strictly non-smoking/vaping) Happy to work long hours when needed, weekends and nights during peak periods (an average of 35-40hrs/wk is usual, but the requirement to work more hours is absolutely part of the role so only apply if this will work for you) Good spoken English You must have the ability to work in New Zealand and proof of this will be required You will also need a clean full drivers licence. Wage for this casual role is $25/hr, including 8% holiday pay.

On-site parking at our base in Waitoki for your fully self-contained camper is available, for the right candidate/s. If this role is interesting for you, email a letter and/or short CV outlining who you are, what you have done and why you are interested (no more than two pages, please). Applications will be reviewed as they arrive and contact with candidates of interest will be made asap.

We intend to hire as soon as the right candidate presents themselves, so don't be slow - apply as soon as you can. Please note that due to time constraint only candidates selected for an initial discussion will be replied to. Regardless, we wish all applicants the very best - and we really look forward to meeting whoever is joining our seasonal team soon.

It could be you.
