High-Pressure Wash Operator

You'll do the heavy cleaning at a mining workshop in Epping, the kind that needs machines, chemicals and training. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

The site is in Epping; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

• Run a high-pressure washer on grease, oil and slurry build-up
• Shampoo carpets and upholstery with an extraction machine
• Store chemicals in the locked chemical store with safety data sheets
• Put out and check pest bait stations on the site map
• Clear builders' dust, paint and cement off floors and windows after construction
• Clean drains and grease traps in commercial kitchens
• Strip down and wash production equipment after the last run

• Physically strong for wet, heavy work
• Reliable, as crews are small and each person counts
• Grade 10 or better; you must read chemical labels and safety data sheets
• Respect for chemical safety and PPE
• Able to pass a medical fitness check for plant work

• Experience using a high-pressure washer or carpet extractor
• Pest control registration under the fumigation rules

• Paid training on machines and chemicals
• Higher hourly rate than standard cleaning
• Night-shift and standby allowances

• Say you are available for night and shutdown work. That is when most factory hygiene cleaning happens.
• Put the machines and chemicals you have used at the top of your CV. Industrial cleaning companies hire on skills, not just willingness.
