AGF Machine Operator

AGF machine operator is a hands-on, technical role at the core of the fruit and vegetable production process. You’ll work in a modern facility where fresh produce is processed, sorted, and packed for distribution across Europe. Because timing and quality matter, your role focuses on keeping machines running smoothly. As a result, production continues without delays.

As an AGF machine operator, you set up, operate, and monitor production machines. In addition, you perform routine checks, quickly spot malfunctions, and carry out minor repairs when needed. That’s why your work directly supports continuous production and prevents downtime. Although you work independently, you’re part of a structured and motivated team. The temperature-controlled environment helps maintain freshness, and you may rotate between machines or tasks during your shift.

Depending on the client, you’ll work in two or three shifts, so flexibility is important. This role suits someone who takes responsibility, values structure, and enjoys technical work. You don’t need to be an engineer, however, you should be reliable, technically minded, and willing to learn.
