About Us

It’s not just what you do at KFC. It’s the way you do it.

Here, everyone has a seat at our table. We feed our people’s potential to be Original – to be their best selves, make a difference and have some fun along the way.

As part of KFC South Pacific, you’ll join one of Australia’s most iconic brands and a business supporting more than 800 restaurants across Australia. Behind our restaurants is a team making sure they have the equipment and support they need to keep things running – and that’s where our Equipment Distribution Centre comes in.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As our new Assistant Warehouse Specialist, you’ll support the day-to-day operation of our Wetherill Park Equipment Distribution Centre (EDC), helping receive, store, prepare and deliver equipment, smallwares and spare parts to KFC restaurants and project sites.

This isn’t your typical warehouse role. Alongside hands-on warehouse operations, you’ll help coordinate and deliver equipment for new restaurants, refurbishments and rollout programs – including occasional regional and interstate travel.

You’ll work closely with restaurants, contractors, builders and internal teams to make sure the right equipment gets to the right place, at the right time.

And the hours? The EDC operates Monday to Friday, 7:30am–4:00pm, with an early finish at 1:30pm every Friday – no regular weekend shifts.

• Pick, check and dispatch equipment, smallwares and spare parts for restaurants and project sites.
• Receive, inspect, unload and safely store incoming equipment and stock.

• Travel regionally or interstate, including occasional overnight stays, when required.
