PART TIME

Vintage Weighbridge Assistant

Vintage 2025 is fast approaching, so this is your opportunity to join us in beautiful Marlborough for one of the most exciting events on the viticulture/winemaking calendar!

We have openings for six Fixed Term Vintage Weighbridge Assistants to join the Viticulture Team for 6-8 weeks over the grape harvest, starting around mid-February 2025. Three of these roles will be dayshift positions, and three roles will be nightshift positions.

Your duties will be varied, and may include assisting the Technical Team with harvest preparation tasks in the vineyards at the start of the season, as well as the standard weighbridge tasks below:

Collection and recording of grape maturity information
Weighing grape trucks in/out of the winery
Data entry of all truck/trailer weights
Keeping accurate records as appropriate
Monitoring trucking flow and adherence to the intake plan
Liaising with the winery and vineyard as required

We’re looking for enthusiastic people who:

Enjoy the buzz of a fast-paced work environment
Are great team players and communicators – both written and verbal
Are great at multi-tasking and working under pressure
Have strong attention to detail
Have an excellent work ethic
Have sound computer literacy – particularly with Microsoft Teams, Outlook, and Excel
Have a full NZ drivers license (or international equivalent)
Able to work six days per week, up to 12 hours per day (during our busy periods).

This is an exciting opportunity to get involved in the Marlborough wine industry and meet some great people. Previous weighbridge experience is an advantage but is not essential as full training will be provided. If this sounds like the challenge you’ve been waiting for, we’d love to hear from you! Don’t delay, as we’ll be reviewing applications as they come in.

Please note in your application if you are applying for the dayshift or nightshift position.

Applicants for this position should have NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa.

Please note that all our sites are now Smokefree.
