Brand New Facility | Casual Roles with genuine pathway to Full-Time

HDS has just completed construction of our brand-new Acacia Ridge depot and we’re building the team that will launch and run it. This is a rare opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a major new facility – we’re looking for experienced High Reach Forklift Operators to join us now, ahead of the operation going live in the coming weeks.

In the initial inbound and warehouse set-up phase, you’ll be working across ambient, chiller, and/or freezer areas in a double deep racking environment, receiving and putting away stock ahead of our clients transitioning across. During this period shifts will typically commence at approximately 5:00am. Once the operation goes live, additional shift times will open up as we transition to a 24/7 operation – providing genuine variety and ongoing opportunity for the right people. These are casual positions to begin with, and we’re committed to offering genuine pathways to full-time employment as the depot stabilises and the operation grows.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Operate high reach forklift equipment safely and efficiently across ambient, chiller, and/or freezer areas within a double deep racking environment
  • Support the inbound receiving and put-away process as the depot is set up and stocked ahead of going live
  • Use RF scanning and WMS systems to manage stock movements accurately and in real time
  • Adhere to all WHS requirements and safe work procedures at all times
  • Work collaboratively with the team to help establish a well-run, high-performing depot from day one

You’ll Bring:

  • A current LF forklift licence with proven high reach operating experience – essential
  • Proficiency with RF scanning and WMS systems – essential
  • Comfort working early morning starts – initial shifts will commence at approximately 5:00am
  • Flexibility to take on a range of shift times as the operation transitions to 24/7
  • A strong commitment to safety, accuracy, and reliable attendance – especially important in a start-up environment

Why Join HDS?

  • Get in from day one – play a hands-on role in launching and shaping a brand-new HDS depot
  • Casual to full-time pathway – as the operation stabilises, we’re committed to converting the right people
  • Growing shift variety as we transition to a 24/7 operation – flexibility opens up more opportunities
  • Supportive team culture and a growing national cold storage logistics business with real career opportunities
