Wine Bottling Labourer
$15.50-$16.50 / hr | Part-time | On-call | Niagara Region
As we enter the busy bottling season, our wineries are searching for on-call staff to assist with wine bottling runs.

If you want to work in a fun, fast-paced environment, then winery work is perfect! Enjoy the majestic views at beautiful Niagara winery locations while learning new skills in wine bottling.
Various wineries in the Niagara Region, from Niagara-on-the-Lake to Grimsby, require extra hands during their peak bottling seasons.
