#14796: 31, Kiwi. An experienced machinery operator with more than 10 years working across dairy farming, agricultural contracting and large-scale agricultural operations. Currently employed by a major contracting business operating 50+ tractors, 6 forage harvesters and 3 combines, where he works across cultivation, groundwork, mowing, raking, chaser bin work, silage operations and general machinery duties. Experienced with John Deere, Fendt and CLAAS equipment and confident using Trimble, GreenStar and Fendt GPS guidance systems. Looking to come to Australia from mid to late October for harvest, ideally in a header operator role, although he is open to chaser bin work. Reference from his current supervisor, a highly experienced operator placed by Rural Enterprises previously, was very positive and confirmed he is a reliable operator, maintains machinery well and should have no issues stepping into a harvest environment. Open to long-term opportunities if the right role presents itself and happy to help with livestock, workshop and maintenance work during downtime.
#8432: PREVIOULY PLACED by Rural Enterprises and returning for a second Australian harvest, this experienced machinery operator comes highly recommended following a successful placement with one of our WA clients last season. With approximately seven years of forestry and heavy machinery experience, he operated a JCB Fastrac and 39-tonne chaser bin during harvest. Positive feedback was received from our client. While happy working independently, he would ideally like to join a larger team environment this season and is keen to progress into header operating if given the opportunity. Also interested in opportunities alongside another highly experienced Rural Enterprises candidate (#9396) and an additional experienced operator, making them a potential four-person harvest team for businesses requiring multiple seasonal staff. Available from early October, non-smoker, proven in Australian harvest conditions and ready to return for another season.
