Making things work in Far North Queensland.

From food production and packaging to engineering workshops, fabrication plants and industrial processing facilities, manufacturing is another of the region's biggest employer categories and a vital contributor to the local economy. Behind every product that leaves a factory floor is a team of skilled workers making it happen.

Manufacturing businesses rely on a wide range of roles, including:
👷 Production Workers
👷🏽‍♀️ Machine Operators
🚚 Forklift Operators
👷🏼 Trades Assistants
✨ Boilermakers and Welders
🏭 Fitters and Machinists
🏪 Storepersons and Dispatch Staff
🔎 Quality Assurance Personnel
🚧 Maintenance Technicians
👨🏼‍💼 Supervisors and Team Leaders

The challenge for many FNQ employers isn't finding work. It's finding the right people, at the right time, with the right skills.

That's where we can make a real difference.

Partnering with EMG Workforce gives manufacturers access to pre-screened candidates, faster recruitment, workforce flexibility during peak production periods, reduced administrative burden and support when unexpected staffing gaps arise.

Whether you need one machine operator for a short-term project or a full production crew to support growth, having a reliable workforce partner can help keep operations running smoothly and productivity on track.

At EMG Workforce, we're proud to support FNQ manufacturers with skilled, dependable workers who are ready to hit the ground running.

Did you know that Far North Queensland contains massive reserves of copper, vanadium, tungsten, graphite, and silica?

These resources support Australia's low-carbon transition and are contributing to a multi-billion-dollar mining boom driven by critical minerals. With this boom comes thousands of jobs and for these reasons Mining and Energy are among the industries we often support with project-ready teams.

If you want to work in the sector then a trade background or experience in construction (civil or residential) can help, but it’s not a prerequisite. Mine sites run on compliance. Every person on site needs specific tickets just to be there legally, and every task beyond basic labouring requires additional qualifications on top of that.

We shortlist any candidates who already holds tickets in:
> Standard 11 mining induction
> Working at Heights
> Confined Spaces
> Atmospheric monitoring (goes with confined spaces)
> First Aid and CPR.

So if you have these tickets, or even if you don't, but want to work in the sector, talk to our team about available opportunities today.
