VACANCIES
Why work for us?
We understand that in order for us to provide our growers with the best possible service, we need to first look after our own people. That’s why we aim to provide our staff with the best possible experience – whether they join us permanently, or just for the main packing season. If you’re interested in joining the Punchbowl team on a permanent or seasonal basis, check out our current vacancies and hit the “Apply” button.
We are backpacker friendly. Working for us is a great way to get a taste of New Zealand’s horticulture sector.
We offer:
- Seasonal and permanent job opportunities
- Free on-site parking
- Medical health insurance and a wellness scheme
- Little/no traffic woes (rural location)
- A wonderful community to be part of (Franklin)
- A collaborative and fun team environment
