Summary
An opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic individual to take on the role of Spray Operator at our Selby Nursery. The role will report to the Operations Managers and will focus predominantly on the day to day spraying of crop.
This role will ensure all spray applications comply with legislation and APS policies and procedures. You will be required to maintain the spray equipment to enable optimum application and to report any equipment faults.
Other responsibilities will also include:
• Filling in all paperwork and records in a neat manner that is required legally and by APS
• Maintain all PPE

The Working hours will be 40 per week, spread between Spraying and other jobs when spraying is not available. Due to the nature of this role flexibility with working times is essential and some weekend and evening work will be required.

Once these certificates are gained you will be required to be a member of NROSO. Experience of using robotic spray equipment would also be an advantage but training will be provided.
