At Hillbrush, we're proud to be a fourth-generation, family-owned business dedicated to manufacturing high-quality cleaning and hygiene products.

The Role

As a Resin Operative, you'll play a key part in ensuring resin-based materials are prepared, set, cured, and finished to the highest quality standards. You'll receive full training in all resin processes and equipment, giving you the skills and confidence to succeed in your role.
