Meat processing workforce services

Long-term experience of
meat-processing
recruitment

The team at Agri Labour Australia has been partnering with meat processing organisations for more than a decade, and we understand the unique demands of the industry.

As specialised agriculture recruiters, we’re able to connect our growing meat-processing client base with candidates who have transferrable skills and a proven track record of reliability.

Long-term experience

Candidates for all commodities and locations

Our recruiters regularly place suitable candidates in permanent and short-term roles at meat processing facilities, specialising in the manufacture of pork, beef, poultry and lamb products.

While our clients generally have more long-term jobs than short-term positions available, they do experience intensive periods where short-term staff are required. From South East Queensland to greater Sydney and country Victoria, Agri Labour Australia places candidates in meat-processing jobs around the country.

Meat-processing expertise

Meat-processing
expertise

We’ve placed many candidates in meat-processing roles, and we know the attributes that work well. When placing candidates in these type of roles, our recruiters first look for previous experience working in a similarly unique environment.

This will mean candidates truly understand what’s involved in a meat-processing role – leading to lower turnover rates, reduced training costs and minimised safety risks. 
Additionally, we also assess the physical attributes of each candidate against the specific tasks they’ll be required to carry out.
