  • Valid driver's license with satisfactory driving record; DZ license an asset.
  • Commitment to workplace safety and proper use of personal protective equipment.
  • Reliable transportation and ability to work at our rural location.

What We Offer:
  • Position with an established company maintaining continuous operations since 1930.

  • Competitive compensation commensurate with experience and certification.
  • Benefits package for full-time employees.
