Production & Distribution Assistant

About us
At Allpress we are espresso specialists, roasting and serving beautiful coffee in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Japan and Singapore. We’re a team of dedicated people who believe in flavour first and care deeply about our customers.
About your new role
We’re looking for a Production & Distribution Assistant to join our Melbourne roastery team based in Reservoir, helping keep things running smoothly behind the scenes and our coffee making its way to customers across Australia.
Working across production, packing and distribution, you’ll be right in the middle of the action, preparing customer orders, keeping stock moving and lending a hand with the roasting process. It’s a hands-on role for someone who likes being on their feet, working alongside a great team and taking pride in getting things done well.

Prepare and pack finished products ready to make their way to our customers
Keep things moving on the packaging line, packing bagged coffee into boxes

Lend a hand loading green coffee into the roasting process, including handling sacks and bulk bags
Help keep the roastery tidy, organised and running smoothly
Follow health, safety and manual handling procedures to keep yourself and the team safe
Pitch in with the team wherever needed because no two days in the roastery are exactly the same
