Job Description
Chop to It – We’re Hiring a Butchery Packer at New World Bishopdale! Future Butcher in the Making? This Could Be Your First Cut.
Do you love the buzz of a busy butchery, the sound of sharpening knives in the morning, and the satisfaction of a perfectly packed tray? Are you keen to learn the trade, get stuck in, and maybe even sharpen your skills into a full-blown apprenticeship? Then grab your apron - The Bish is calling!
We’re on the hunt for a Butchery Packer to join our tight-knit crew. You’ll be the backbone of the prep room, helping keep things clean, tidy, and running like a well-oiled mincer. And if you’ve got the right attitude, there’s a pathway here to train as a butcher and take your career to the next level.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Packing & Presentation - Wrap, label and stack meat products with care and precision.
Clean & Tidy - Help keep the butchery sparkling clean and food-safe.
Chill Zone - Work in a cool environment (literally), handling fresh meat and keeping cabinets stocked.
Learn the Trade - Watch, listen, and learn from our skilled butchers. If you’re keen, we’ll teach you the ropes.
Hours – Monday, Wednesday, Thursday & Sundays, 32 hours p/w - Final details to be confirmed. No late nights, just good honest hours.
About You:
Hard Worker - You’re not afraid of a bit of elbow grease and you show up ready to roll.
Detail-Oriented - You notice when the wrap’s not tight or the label's off-centre. That’s the kind of pride we love.
Team Player - We’re a crew - You’ve got good vibes and are happy to lend a helping hand.
Keen to Learn - You’re curious, motivated and maybe even dreaming of becoming a butcher one day.
Reliable & Honest - We value trust, consistency and a good sense of humour.
About Us:
At Bishopdale New World, our butchery team is small but mighty. We take pride in every cut, every tray and every customer interaction. We train, we support, and we celebrate the wins - big and small.
What We Offer:
A Supportive Crew - You’ll be part of a team that backs each other up and has a laugh along the way.
Apprenticeship Potential - For the right person, this role can grow into a formal butchery apprenticeship.
On-the-Job Training - Learn from experienced butchers who love what they do.
Great Work Culture - Respect, good banter and a job well done. That’s the Bish butchery way.
