About Us:

Kent is an Australian success story that started over 70 years ago and has grown from a family business to an award-winning organisation, built on reputation and excellence.  What’s little known about us is what makes Kent such a great place to work, our people.  We have so many employee stories to share, like those that have been a part of Kent for decades, or our youngest State Manager who started out driving trucks.  And then there is our father and daughter duo who proves some family businesses are worth trusting your family with.

Why work for Us:

• We offer well above award rates with 10% superannuation and lots of options for overtime
• Full work uniform provided
• A company culture that genuinely values its people but isn’t afraid to have some fun
• We always look within so great opportunities to try other business areas such as Sales, Training or Operations
• Comprehensive induction ensuring you get the best start
• Multiple performance incentives across the busy period that really add up financially

You may not fit the requirements 100% but that’s ok, like we said we focus on training and ensuring you have a clear understanding of the role we entrust you to undertake.
