About The Business

Colorspan Industries, established in 1985, is an Australian‑owned steel manufacturing business based in Tullamarine.

We manufacture metal roofing products and architectural cladding systems for residential and commercial builders.

We are a hands‑on manufacturing business that values safety, reliability, teamwork and getting the job done right every time.

We are seeking Production Operators to join our manufacturing team on:

* Day Shift: 7:30 am–3:30 pm
* Afternoon Shift: 4:00 pm–12:00 am (shift loading allowance applies)

This role suits someone who enjoys physical, practical work, takes pride in quality, and shows up ready to work.

Experience is welcome, but attitude, reliability and work ethic matter most.

You will work across multiple production areas including slitting, folding, roll‑forming and custom sheet‑metal manufacturing.

This is a role where people who perform well, show commitment and fit our culture can progress into permanent employment and build a long‑term career in manufacturing.


What You Will Be Doing

* Read and work from production orders and job instructions to meet daily production schedules
* Operate - or learn to operate - coil slitters, pan‑brake folders and other sheet‑metal equipment
* Manufacture custom sheet‑metal products to specification and quality standards
* Pick, pack and prepare finished orders for dispatch
* Perform manual handling tasks (loading, unloading, stacking)
* Complete daily equipment start‑up and safety checks
* Maintain a sharp eye on quality and attention detail
* Work closely with your team to meet daily production and quality targets
* Maintain a clean, safe and organised work area
* Follow safety procedures, SOPs and instructions at all times


What We Are Looking For


Non‑negotiables

* Current driver's licence and reliable transport
* Basic computer / system entry capability
* Physically fit and comfortable with manual handling
* Safety‑first mindset
* Reliable, punctual and consistent
* Positive attitude – not a "that's not my job" type
* Clear communication and ability to work as part of a team


Nice To Have (but Not Essential)

* Current Forklift Licence
* Experience in manufacturing, warehousing or sheet‑metal industry
* Machine operating experience


What We Offer

* Competitive hourly rate (based on experience)
* Day & Afternoon shifts, Monday to Friday
* Afternoon shift loading allowance applies
* Ongoing work in a stable, long‑established business
* Supportive team environment with clear expectations
* On‑the‑job training and skill development
* Genuine opportunity for permanency and career progression

We are building capability for future growth and we want people who want to grow with us.


Important to Know

* Pre‑employment checks apply (police check and medical assessment)
* This is a hands‑on production role suited to people who like to move, work with machinery and be part of a team that delivers results
