You’ll rotate across different tasks, including:

The role involves working both indoors and outdoors on a rotated pattern. While you won’t be outside all the time, you should be comfortable working outdoors.

• FLT (Fork Lift Truck) licence desirable, but Calor will support you in obtaining your FLT licence through our training agreement package
• After 6 months, you’ll have the opportunity to apply to become a Cylinder Inspector, which offers an additional hourly allowance when operating that shift
• Clear progression opportunities to develop your skills and career

Your safety is our top priority. We operate a safety‑before‑production culture, meaning you will never be expected to put output ahead of your own safety or the safety of others. You’ll be working in a well‑controlled environment, with clear procedures, full training, and the right support to make sure you go home safe every day.
