Full job description

SKUTOPIA is on a mission to democratise and decarbonise logistics.

SKUTOPIA is a deep-tech logistics company operating under a dual RaaS (Robotics-as-a-Service) and SaaS model. We deliver end-to-end, AI-powered robotic fulfilment for retailers - eliminating inefficiencies inherent in traditional 3PL models, such as human error, high labour costs, and carbon-heavy processes.

Our advanced robotics and proprietary AI empower our customers to scale faster with high-speed, high-quality fulfilment at a fraction of the typical cost - while also driving both revenue and profit growth.

Founded in 2018 by Talea Bader and Emily Townsend, SKUTOPIA began as Sydney’s first eCommerce co-working space. After witnessing firsthand the logistics challenges faced by SMBs, the founders evolved the business into a tech-first fulfilment solution.


Role Overview:

Our business is built on inclusion, inspiration and ambition. We believe no two people are the same and we’re lucky to have a diverse team of logistics experts. We believe our people are the best in the business, and we proudly shout it from the rooftops. Our company values are not lofty aspirations, they’re true to how we all show up to work every day. Our SKUTOPIA Distribution Centre located in Altona, Melbourne, has just opened and will deliver a premium service to our e-commerce merchants and end consumers, initially fulfilling up to 10,000 orders per day before ramping up in the future. We are looking for a Permanent Forklift Operator to contribute to a high performing fulfilment team.

Key Responsibilities:

  • 3+ years experience as a Forklift Operator (Counter balance experience preferred)
  • Conducting pre-start checks and basic maintenance
  • Receive and putaway inventory
  • Adhere to strict safety, quality and fulfilment standards
  • Be on your feet for the majority of the day including lifting and bending to reach products on racking, climbing stairs, walking and standing.
  • Collaborate with fellow team members and supervisors to optimise workflows and ensure all warehouse tasks are completed accurately and on time.
  • Maintain a clean working environment - taking out the rubbish, cardboard etc.

What skills & experience are beneficial:

  • Current valid forklift licence
  • Experience using a counterbalance or high reach forklift
  • Ability to follow and improve the sites traffic management plan as we scale
  • Basic computer experience
  • Reliable and punctual
  • Excellent attention to detail and accuracy
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively as part of a team
  • Commitment to maintaining a safe and organised work environment

What’s in it for you?

  • Opportunity to work in a purpose-driven company shaping the future of logistics
  • See the impact of your work
  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • A fun, lively and dynamic work environment
  • A supportive and inclusive workplace that values your voice to support innovation, collaboration, and personal development
  • Being a part of a company that deeply values our culture and our people
