Job Description
The Role:
We're looking for an Experienced Brewer to join our production team at our Palmyra facility and help us keep making beer worth drinking. This is a permanent, full-time position where you'll have hands-on ownership of the full brewing process, from mash through to fermentation and finished product. You'll work alongside a diverse team that takes the craft seriously, with the resources of a growing, multi-brand drinks company behind you.
Your Day-to-Day:
Perform and monitor brewing operations from the brewhouse through fermentation and filtration, ensuring quality and consistency
Operate and maintain brewing and production equipment to the highest standards of safety and performance
Collaborate with the production team on recipe development and process design
Conduct quality control testing and analysis throughout production
Maintain accurate production records, inventory data and quality assurance documentation
Train and mentor team members as part of our Trainee Brewer program
Roster:
Our brewery runs 24 hours a day, 6 days a week, so it’s worth understanding the shift pattern before you apply:
12-hour shifts covering both days and nights, Sunday to Friday
Rotating roster – you’ll work a mix of day and night blocks
Blocks of 3 to 4 shifts, followed by days off
This pattern suits people who like longer stretches of time off between blocks, but it does mean regular night work and some weekends and public holidays. If that works for your lifestyle, we’d love to hear from you.
Flexibility and reliability are essential.
Desired Skills and Experience
What We're Looking For:
Proven experience as a Brewer in a commercial brewing environment
Great time management and multitasking skills
Strong technical knowledge of brewing processes, equipment operation and recipe formulation
Demonstrated ability to identify and resolve operational issues efficiently
Solid understanding of workplace health and safety regulations in a production setting
Excellent communication and teamwork skills
High attention to detail in record-keeping, quality management and housekeeping
The Good Stuff:
Good Drinks Australia offers the opportunity to work with premium craft beer brands in a professional, well-equipped facility. You'll be part of a growing company that values quality, innovation, and the expertise of its brewing team.
Gage Bucks — beer money allocated throughout the year
