Contract: Long-term temporary opportunity with permanent prospects

Looking for a Long-Term Opportunity in Manufacturing?

Are you reliable, hardworking and looking for a role where you can build your experience and potentially secure a permanent position?

We're recruiting Packing Operatives to join a busy and growing manufacturing team in Perth.

This is more than just a short-term packing role. It's an opportunity to join an established manufacturing environment where quality, accuracy and teamwork really matter, with full training provided and genuine long-term prospects for the right people.

You'll be responsible for making sure products are packed correctly, labelled accurately and prepared to the required standards before dispatch. If you enjoy keeping busy, have a good eye for detail and take pride in getting things right first time, we want to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing

As a Packing Operative, you'll be an important part of the production process.

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

Packing products accurately into boxes and tubing to specification

Selecting the correct packaging materials by following Standard Operating Procedures

Printing and checking labels before products are prepared for dispatch

Reading and following work instructions and production documentation

Checking products and packaging carefully to ensure quality standards are met

Prioritising workloads and completing orders within required timescales

Recording production information accurately

Updating computer systems where required

Identifying and reporting any issues or discrepancies

Keeping your workstation clean, safe and organised

Working efficiently to achieve production targets and deadlines

Supporting colleagues across the department when required

Following all health and safety procedures

What We're Looking For

We're particularly interested in candidates who are dependable, quality-focused and comfortable working within a structured, fast-paced environment.

Ideally, you will have:

Previous experience within manufacturing, production, packing or a warehouse environment

Excellent attention to detail and accuracy

A reliable and punctual approach to work

A strong work ethic and positive attitude

The ability to follow detailed processes and instructions

Good communication skills

Basic IT skills and confidence using computer systems

The ability to organise and prioritise your workload

Good problem-solving skills

The ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team

A flexible approach and willingness to support different areas when required

Most importantly, we're looking for people who take pride in their work, can be relied upon and understand that quality and accuracy are just as important as working efficiently.

No Manufacturing Experience?

Previous manufacturing, production or warehouse experience would be beneficial, but don't let a lack of direct packing experience put you off.

Full training will be provided, so if you have transferable experience, a strong work ethic and the right attitude to learn, we'd still be keen to hear from you.

Why Apply?

There's plenty to make this an attractive long-term opportunity:

£14.08 per hour

Double day shift pattern

Overtime opportunities available

Long-term, ongoing work

Genuine permanent prospects for the right candidates

Full training and ongoing support

Opportunity to learn specialist manufacturing processes

Develop valuable production and technical skills

Work as part of a supportive and established team

Opportunity to progress and develop your experience within manufacturing

Is This Role Right for You?

This could be an excellent fit if you enjoy hands-on work, being kept busy and working as part of a team.

We're particularly keen to hear from people who are looking for stability and a longer-term opportunity, rather than simply their next short-term assignment.

You'll need to be comfortable following processes, maintaining concentration and checking your work carefully. Reliability is also extremely important, as you'll be a key part of a team working together to meet production requirements.

If you're ready to bring a positive attitude, strong work ethic and excellent attention to detail, this could be a great opportunity to take your next step within manufacturing.
