Support staff to aerial application aircraft

Southern Air Ag is looking for Support staff to its Aerial Application business based out of Naracoorte in the Southeast of South Australia. 

The role is mainly in support of loading agricultural, fixed wing aircraft from well-equipped, purpose-built vehicles. As well as "out of season" type maintenance in the quiet times.

Our season is primarily from mid-winter through to early summer with the spring being our busiest time. We do however operate all year.

The role would suit someone who: -

Enjoys working in a very social and professional environment.

Has particular attention to detail, who prioritizes a safe, methodical and accurate approach to their work. 

Enjoys working with their hands and lateral thinking/problem solving.

Trade qualifications (while aren't' required) are often a good fit with the associated mindset and work that goes with them.

Outside of busy times it is a casual workplace with a fantastic group (4 other fulltime staff), and we will be putting significant emphasis on preserving the nature of the workplace.

Work hours too are quite flexible as per the seasonal nature of the work. The quiet times see plenty of flexibility to be compatible with family life.

Working with modern well-maintained gear and some fantastic planes if aviation is an interest.

The role has significant diversity in its potential with definite opportunity to work towards a variance of senior and/or managerial positions if of interest, and for the right candidate.

We would be happy with a commitment for just the 2024 season as a trial to see if the industry is of interest and would like to pursue it further.

Full penalty rates as per the award are obviously included. All required training can be provided in house (including truck license).
