Ashur is an operator at our recycled plastics plant in Smithfield, New South Wales. He operates the equipment that cleans and processes polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic collected through kerbside recycling and container deposit schemes.
One of the things Ashur enjoys most about his role is working across different areas of the site.
“I’m known to help out everywhere – you may find me driving forklifts, working on the blending machine or the high-density polyethylene wash line.”
For Ashur, the variety of work and opportunities to learn new skills make every day rewarding.
“Every day is an opportunity to learn something new with a great team by my side! Site management is also really encouraging and pushes me to take on new opportunities.”
The strong team culture is another reason he enjoys working at Visy.
“The team is supportive and helpful. We work so well together and are also known for hosting a great barbecue.”
For anyone considering a career with Visy, Ashur says it’s a place where you can continue learning and growing.
“You can learn and try something new here. Working at Visy has taught me more about the importance of recycling and the role we have in this process.”
