Liquid Compounder / Batch Mixer – Animal Health Manufacturing

C M Laboratories Pty Ltd | Mulgrave, NSW | Full Time

$34–$40 per hour + quarterly & half-yearly bonuses + overtime opportunities

C M Laboratories is an Australian manufacturer based near Windsor, producing a wide range of animal healthcare products for our own VETSENSE brand as well as contract manufacturing customers.

We are looking for a Liquid Compounder / Batch Mixer to join our manufacturing team.

This is a hands-on role where you will manufacture products from start to finish. You'll work from approved batch instructions, weigh and prepare raw materials, operate mixing and processing equipment and turn those ingredients into finished liquid, gel and paste products.

If you enjoy practical work, working with machinery and being able to see the product you've made at the end of the process, this could be a great fit.

You will be trained in our products, equipment and manufacturing processes, with responsibilities including:

• Weighing and dispensing raw materials accurately

• Following batch records, formulations and manufacturing instructions

• Manufacturing liquid, gel and paste production batches

• Operating mixers, pumps, homogenisers and other processing equipment

• Monitoring batches throughout the manufacturing process

• Completing batch documentation accurately

• Cleaning and sanitising manufacturing equipment and work areas

• Identifying and reporting equipment or manufacturing issues

• Moving and handling raw materials safely

• Following GMP, safety and quality procedures

As your experience develops, you'll also have the opportunity to become involved in troubleshooting, process improvements and improving production efficiencies.

You don't need a Chemistry degree to be successful in this role.

We're looking for someone who is practical, reliable and takes pride in producing things correctly.

You'll ideally have:

• Experience in manufacturing, production, batching, blending, mixing or a similar hands-on environment

• Good basic numeracy and confidence working with weights and measurements

• The ability to follow written instructions and batch records accurately

• Strong attention to detail

• A practical approach to operating and learning manufacturing equipment

• The physical capability to perform manual-handling tasks safely [heavy lifting is involved]

• A strong focus on safety, cleanliness and product quality

• Reliability and a good work ethic

• The ability to work well as part of a production team

Experience in pharmaceutical, animal health, chemical, cosmetics, personal care, food, beverage or similar manufacturing would be highly regarded, but direct pharmaceutical compounding experience is not required.

Forklift experience would also be advantageous but is not essential.

This is an opportunity to develop a specialised manufacturing skill rather than simply perform repetitive production-line work.

We offer:

• Permanent full-time employment

• Monday to Thursday hours, 8am - 4.30pm, Friday 8am - 2.30pm

• Competitive hourly rate

• Performance-based quarterly and half-yearly bonuses

• Overtime opportunities during busy periods

• Training in compounding, equipment and GMP manufacturing

• Exposure to a wide range of products and formulations

• Opportunities to develop your troubleshooting and manufacturing skills

• Support from an experienced production team

• On-site parking at our Mulgrave facility

• A stable role with an established Australian manufacturer

People currently working as a Compounder, Batch Mixer, Blender, Process Operator, Manufacturing Operator, Production Operator or Machine Operator may have skills that transfer well to this role.

If you're looking for a hands-on manufacturing position where accuracy, practical ability and reliability are valued, we'd like to hear from you.
