Production Scheduler

ABOUT US

Dahlsens Family Group of Companies is a proud, long-standing partner to Australia’s builders, from local trades and serious renovators to large-scale residential and commercial projects. As an Australian family owned and run business, we are committed to supporting the industry and the communities we serve.
We offer a true whole-of-house solution, supporting the build from the ground up - from wall frames and trusses through to doors, hardware, windows, roofing, kitchens, bathrooms, and lifestyle cabinetry. We are here to make building simpler, smarter, and more reliable.
With a legacy dating back to 1877, we continue to evolve, helping builders get the job done right and this is just the beginning.

ABOUT THE ROLE

• Full-time permanent opportunity + attractive hourly rate + super + Mon-Fri hours
• Free uniform and safety boots reimbursement provided up to $120.00
• Be part of a 145 year old organisation that puts its people first and has their best interests at heart

*** Dahlsens Building Centres closes for a mandatory shutdown over the Christmas/New Year period, and as a new starter you are unlikely to have accrued enough annual leave to cover it, so leave without pay may apply - we’ll talk this through with you during the interview process ***

As a Production Scheduler at our Wagga Wagga Truss & Frame manufacturing plant, you will play an integral role in our truss and frame operations. Your primary focus will be the accurate data entry of new orders and ensuring they flow through the confirmation and manufacturing process in consultation with the Branch Manager.

You will liaise with Detailers to ensure work is ready for production, communicate timber supply levels to protect the supply chain, and schedule deliveries so our trade customers receive their orders on time and in full.

• Reporting hazards, near misses and incidents promptly via Donesafe
• Living the 'Our Circle of Care' principles – See, Say, Listen, Stop – and looking out for the safety of yourself, your team, our customers and the community
