Industrial Plastics is one of Australia's leading designers and manufacturers of engineered plastic infrastructure for mining, water treatment, chemical processing and major industrial projects.

Why This Role Is Different

Most internships involve making coffee and sitting in meetings.

This one involves giant tanks, major mining projects, drones, factory tours, project launches, team stories and helping showcase an industry that keeps Australia running.

If you're passionate about content creation and want to gain real-world experience while building your portfolio, we'd love to hear from you.
