We are seeking a reliable and safety-conscious Heavy Equipment Operator to join a premier industrial facility in the local area. This role is perfect for a seasoned operator who enjoys working outdoors and prefers a "quality over speed" pace. If you have a solid background in heavy machinery and a meticulous eye for detail, we want to hear from you.
This position involves the outdoor operation of heavy machinery to manage inventory and logistics. You will be responsible for the movement of large-scale materials, primarily piping, ensuring they are safely transitioned from flat-deck trucks into the facility. This role requires a blend of skilled operating and hands-on ground work in a steady, controlled environment.

Reliable shifts with a steady workflow and no frantic rushing
The company will pay for your specific Telehandler certification
Ideal for those who prefer working outside rather than being stuck in a warehouse
Opportunity to work with a reputable leader in the industrial production industry

Responsibilities
Safely operate a 20,000 lb telehandler and other heavy machinery such as loaders, excavators, or dozers
Load and unload large pipes from flat-deck trucks and transport them into the production building
Exit the cab to manually set wheel chocks, hammer them in, and secure loads on trailers
Manage the flow of inventory, moving pipe in and out of the facility approximately once per hour
Maintain a slow and steady pace to ensure the safety of the crew and the integrity of the product

Qualifications
3–5 years of experience operating heavy equipment
Experience with grapple attachments is a significant asset, though training is provided
Must hold a valid operator's license for at least one piece of heavy machinery (Telehandler, Loader, Excavator, or Dozer)
Ability to work outdoors in various weather conditions and perform physical tasks
A methodical approach to work that values precision and safety
