2026 GrainCorp Harvest Casual Intake

Harvest Your Potential with GrainCorp!

If you ask us, there's no better time to be working in agriculture – and with another bumper winter crop expected on the east coast of Australia, it's the perfect opportunity to #harvestyourpotential with GrainCorp.

Experience a 'taste' of working in the Australian grains industry by applying to join our harvest worker army for the 2026 harvest!

The work we offer

Safely and efficiently moving millions of tonnes of grain into our receival sites across Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria during harvest requires a big effort and focus from our teams. Growers must be able to deliver to our sites and turn back around to the header as quickly as possible – and our harvest workforce is crucial to that process.

That's why we're recruiting thousands of casual workers to help us deliver an outstanding service to growers and customers. The action typically starts in Central Queensland around late September; it moves down to Southern Queensland and Northern NSW by mid-October; and hits Southern NSW and Victoria by late October to early November.

The work we offer includes grain handling (general labouring), grain sampling, weighbridge operations and laboratory support, and we provide all the training you need (plus, you get paid for it!).
