Mushroom picker (waterloo corner)

SA Mushrooms is growing our picking team. If you are keen to learn, have a steady hand, a delicate touch, and own transport, this could be the job for you!

We grow our mushrooms indoors in climate‐controlled rooms, picking 365 days a year. This means workers have secure and reliable work throughout the year.

Pickers are an integral part of SA Mushrooms. Your day‐to‐day role includes picking and packing mushrooms indoors in our modern climate‐controlled facility. You'll receive five weeks of intensive training with dedicated Mushroom Picking Trainers to give you every opportunity to succeed.

To be successful, you need at least intermediate English skills, be available to work during the day (hours between 7am‐5pm) on a seven‐day rotating roster, and must have your own reliable transport. All pickers are based at our farm in Waterloo Corner in the Northern suburbs of Adelaide.

Please note that applicants must currently live and have work rights in Australia without restrictions on work hours.
