JOB SCOPE:
The Kimberly-Clark Australia Nonwovens plant is situated in Albury on the Victorian and

The remuneration system is based on skills acquisition together with a component for
performance. As a result, training and development of the workforce is a high profile activity
at the Mill.
The incumbent will be expected to work under direction to assist in reviewing a range of
operating practices, recommending options as appropriate and implementing improved
systems as agreed.
The Mill’s organisation is structured on the team concept with the production teams being
developed as high performance semi-autonomous work teams. This work environment
requires a participative management approach. All of the incumbent’s work in training and
manufacturing systems will thus need to support this approach and will be done in an
environment of consultation and facilitation to assist in the review process and to enable
recommendations to be made on relevant issues.
The Albury Mill is relatively small. As a result, team members often support one another in a
broad range of skills in which they are willing to contribute. The incumbent will be involved in
a wide range of support issues for their team, as well as the Production Manager and other
support team members as required, including human resource support, Mill problem solving
and document/procedure preparation. This aspect presents an opportunity not present in
