As a Crate Washing Operator, you play a key role in the logistics process. You ensure that crates used for transporting fresh products leave the facility clean, safe, and ready for reuse. This means you directly contribute to food safety and a more sustainable supply chain.
At the start of your shift, you review the planning and correctly set up the machines. You ensure that all parameters, such as water temperature and chemicals, are properly configured. You then closely monitor the cleaning process. If you notice any deviations, you take immediate action to keep the line running smoothly.
You also perform visual inspections. You check incoming and cleaned crates for damage, contamination, or irregularities. Crates that do not meet quality standards are separated or reported in the system. You resolve minor technical issues independently. For more complex problems, you quickly coordinate with the technical department.
Preventive maintenance is also part of your responsibilities. This includes cleaning filters, checking moving parts, and refilling the correct cleaning agents. At the same time, you accurately record relevant data such as volumes and deviations, ensuring the next shift can continue without disruption.
What makes this role even more interesting is that your input matters. During team meetings, you actively contribute ideas to improve processes, safety, and sustainability. You work closely with colleagues and team leaders to maintain a structured and positive work environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","umanga_modified":"","umanga_intro":"We are looking for a Crate Washing Operator for a leading international company specialising in reusable packaging solutions.
