We are a leading horticultural business with berry farms on the Atherton Tablelands. We require up to 400 staff to fulfil our requirements for the 2020 Berry season. Farm hand work is casual employment and payment is based on the Costa (Berry Category) Enterprise Agreement 2019-2023.

Farm Hand tasks include both piece rate and hourly paid positions. You will be asked to enter into a ‘Piecework Agreement’ with us. A piece rate amount for an average competent picker/pruner/weeder is $27.29 per hour of work. This means that your income will depend on how much work you perform rather than how many hours you work. The hours and location of work for this work will vary daily depending on weather conditions and market demands. Our farms are located at Tolga, Walkamin and Rangeview on the Atherton Tablelands.

In the case of hourly work, which may include packing, planting and general farm work, the pay rate is in accordance with the Enterprise Agreement 2019-2023, viz. $24.36 per hour.

The Farm Hand role involves physically demanding work. You must be physically fit and capable of performing the repetitive and demanding nature of the work. This will include: carrying of weight up to 20kgs, walking on uneven ground, bending and squatting. You will be required to pass an induction process and recruitment criteria/conditions such as a manual handling assessment.

The Far North Queensland season runs from early March through to late September. Weather conditions and fruit maturity influences the availability of work. You may be required to travel to different picking locations.
