Bright Brewery has just added another gold award for tourism to its swollen trophy cabinet and recently opened a second brewery to ramp up production.
The brewery team is now after a logistics coordinator to help ensure the right stock is in the right place at the right time.
Job Description: Logistics Coordinator
Bright Brewery was born in 2005 from a passion for well-made beer, a love for the town of Bright and its pristine alpine environment, and the adventurous outdoors lifestyle that the High Country provides.
We are driven by our values to be authentic and sustainable in all that we do, and to embrace active lifestyles, celebrated with great beer.
As a microbrewery, we are able to make more specialised beers using natural ingredients. We are able to have fun experimenting with different flavours. We are particularly lucky in Bright as we have pristine mountain water and are located in a valley renowned for its hop growing. All this adds up to being able to make great beer.

We're a vibrant, growing and award-winning business that values the authenticity of our products, services and people, with a sustainable future for all.
