Entry Level Log Scaler / Measurer

About the Job

Our Wellington branch needs to keep building our team of Log Scalers. Log scaling is an NZQA accredited job, where a structured training programme can gain you a recognised qualification. You don’t need previous experience in this type of role either as training is provided. 

The Checkpoint is a facility where logging trucks come to have their logs measured and ticketed ready for export. The Log Scaler “scales” or measures each log to an international standard using scanning equipment, then barcodes the log and records it in our system so that every single log can be tracked wherever it is.

The Checkpoint is a team environment where the safety of our staff is paramount. Shifts can be up to 12 hours in length and are Monday to Friday between the hours of 0400am and 1900pm when we are open for processing trucks, we also work weekends on a rostered basis. There may be a requirement in the future to work some night shifts, however this is not a requirement on the current roster. Ultimately we are looking for staff who can be a bit flexible with the hours they work.

About you

You will be the kind of person who likes to be accurate when taking measurements, with good attention to detail. Previous administration and data entry experience will be beneficial. You will also enjoy communicating with truck drivers and members of your team. This is an active outdoor role that requires you to meet deadlines and also be ok on your feet for most of your shift.  You will also be confident operating scanning equipment and preferably hold a full class 1 licence.
