    Job description

    Like the idea of a job where no two days look the same? One minute you're on the forklift loading a truck, the next you're booking in a delivery or helping a customer at the counter. If you enjoy staying busy and turning your hand to a bit of everything, you'll fit right in.

    Reporting to the Branch Manager at our Hornby branch, you'll keep the yard, the forklift and the front counter ticking over – making sure product is where it needs to be and out the gate on time.

    What you'll be doing

    • Operating the forklift to move, stack, load and store product safely (including concrete and PVC)
    • Loading and unloading trucks and customer vehicles, and keeping deliveries and paperwork on track
    • Yard and stock control – stocktakes, cycle counts, receiving inwards goods, and keeping the yard tidy and secure
    • Helping customers at the counter with sales, quotes and phone enquiries

    What you'll bring

    • A full NZ (Class 1) driver's licence
    • A forklift F endorsement – or the drive to get one; we'll support the right person to gain it
    • Some yard, forklift or hands-on experience, and happy working at pace
    • A friendly, helpful way with customers
    • Comfortable using a computer for stock, invoicing and orders
    • The fitness to stay active all day and handle product up to around 20kg
    • Industry product knowledge is a bonus, not a must – we'll teach you the rest

    What's in it for you

    • Health insurance (subject to eligibility)
    • Employee Assistance Programme
    • Access to company partner discounts
    • Genuine training and room to grow within a well-established Kiwi business

    Why Hynds

    We've been New Zealand's leading supplier of water and water-based waste management for civil and rural infrastructure since 1973 – and we're still proudly family-owned. That shapes how we work: it's a place where people matter, where we do what's right, and where we back our people and customers to succeed. Heading home safe and well at the end of each day is everyone's priority.
