Jobs in Shepparton

Shepparton's employment identity is inseparable from the Goulburn Valley's food production economy. SPC, Australia's largest fruit canning and processing operation, is headquartered in Shepparton and employs hundreds of full time and seasonal workers across production, quality assurance, logistics and corporate functions. Dairy processing, along with orchards, vegetable farms and the broader irrigated agriculture sector, generate substantial agricultural and food processing employment across the Shepparton area year round. The seasonal harvest period from December through March brings peak demand for fruit picking, packing and processing workers across the region.

Beyond food production, Shepparton carries strong healthcare employment through Goulburn Valley Health, which is undertaking a major hospital redevelopment that is expected to significantly expand the city's health services capacity. Retail across the Maude Street Mall and surrounding commercial areas, education through La Trobe University's Shepparton campus and local schools, construction and government services through Greater Shepparton City Council provide consistent year-round employment. Shepparton's diversity as a community also generates community services, interpreting and settlement support employment. For Jobseekers considering regional Victoria, Shepparton offers affordable housing, strong community infrastructure and genuine employment depth across food production, healthcare and services.
