  • Pack cartons to the export pattern and weight

  • Check fruit samples and record quality results on the QC sheet

What you need

  • Quick and neat with your hands
  • Available for the full packing season including Saturdays
  • Follows hygiene rules at all times
  • Arrives on time for early shifts
  • Basic counting and reading for labels
