Manufacturing Assistant-Hygiene

Know your way around a spotless workspace? Find satisfaction in sparkling surfaces? Love being part of a team where everyone lifts together?


Same.


You might have the secret sauce we’re looking for.


We’re on the lookout for a Manufacturing Assistant- Hygiene who’s as committed to quality as we are. As a key part of our production team, you’ll play a vital role in keeping our facilities clean, safe, and running at their best, ensuring every Beerenberg product (including our iconic strawberry jam!) meets the highest standards. Your work helps protect the flavour, freshness, and reputation of one of South Australia’s most loved brands.


Want to know more about being a Beerenberg Manufacturing Assistant- Hygiene? Here’s what it says on the jar:

You’ll be a hygiene champion, completing systematic sanitisation across production areas, including OPC and CIP, while keeping every surface, machine, and workspace spotless and foodsafe.
You’ll be handson across multiple zones, maintaining high hygiene standards in areas such as Glass Filling, Bulk Line, PCL 1 & 2, Preparation and Staging Rooms, Fruit Processing, cool rooms, freezers, and staff facilities.
You’ll take ownership of food safety and compliance, confidently applying HACCP, GMP, WHS, chemical handling, and all Beerenberg procedures, SOPs and work instructions in everything you do.
You’ll keep equipment in top condition, safely disassembling and reassembling machinery for deep cleaning, and ensuring all plant, tools, and production items are sanitised to Beerenberg and SQF standards.
You’ll work safely, smartly, and as part of the team, wearing PPE correctly, following safe work methods, attending required training, and stepping in to support production or hygiene tasks whenever needed.
Now, for your own ingredients list. You’ll be the right person for this role if you:

You’ll bring a solid understanding of WHS, GMP and HACCP principles, along with the reliability, attention to detail and pride in your work that keep a food manufacturing environment safe, compliant and running smoothly.
You’ll be confident working with chemicals and cleaning products, with awareness of safe handling practices and a willingness to learn Beerenberg’s inhouse chemical procedures and hygiene competencies.
You’ll thrive in a team environment, communicating clearly and working cooperatively with colleagues, supervisors, suppliers and visitors, while using your initiative to keep housekeeping standards high across site.
You’ll have hands-on experience in the food industry (or similar) and ideally an understanding of the food manufacturing process, plus the physical fitness needed for a role that involves lifting, bending, standing and moving throughout the shift.
You’ll have a genuine passion for food, comfortable sharing recipe ideas or talking flavour, and may bring additional practical skills such as a Forklift Licence, EWP or Boom Lift certification.
Love, love, love all things food, flavour and South Australian, Beerenbergy goodness.
“Sounds good, but what makes working at Beerenberg so sweet?”


At Beerenberg, we’re a family business through and through (have been since we used Grandma’s pan to make our very first batch of strawberry jam!) and we firmly believe that a happy team means happy customers.


We’ve spent decades perfecting the recipe for workplace satisfaction and we’re proud to say a number of Beerenberg team members have been with us for decades - you might even recognise some of their names that feature on our jars!


If we could bottle the thing that makes Beerenberg great, our team would be the secret sauce. We’d love to have you join the mix.
