THE OPPORTUNITY
Macquarie Harbour is unique in that it is a mix of fresh and salt water making it the perfect location to grow Ocean Trout— a species that thrives in these conditions. Fish are grown across three separate leases to ensure year class separation.
As a member of our On-Water Maintenance crew, you will work closely with our Hobart based Control Room to undertake all routine maintenance on our Feed related equipment. This includes ensuring cameras are in spread, winches are in good working order, reporting any predator activity or unusual fish behaviour to the control room, responding to control room requests, and attending to other zone maintenance and monitoring as required.
About You
You will possess a strong work ethic, an eye for detail, well-developed communication skills and be physically fit. Experience in a similar role or an understanding of Fish farming and record keeping is desirable but not essential.
Successful applicants require a valid driver’s licence, coxswains ticket and must be available to work a 7/7 off roster.
ABOUT US
Huon Aquaculture is an ‘Employer of Choice’ and innovative industry leader who offers all our employees access to ongoing training opportunities, corporate health insurance benefits and discounts on Huon products.
