Job Description

Our company is a well-established manufacturing facility specializing in high-quality metal casting products. We pride ourselves on maintaining industry-leading standards in production processes and employee safety. With a commitment to continuous improvement and customer satisfaction, we operate a dynamic and fast-paced work environment that supports innovation and teamwork. We are currently seeking a skilled Sand Mixer to join our Mold/Core Department and contribute to our ongoing success.

This position requires a careful approach to mixing, handling, and maintaining sand materials along with operating specific equipment such as forklifts and sand hoppers. Candidates should have the ability to interpret simple instructions clearly and apply practical methods to meet production goals.

In this role, the Sand Mixer will directly impact the quality and efficiency of our production lines by preparing sand mixtures consistently and safely. The work involves both physical demands, such as lifting heavy materials and standing for extended periods, and technical tasks like operating machinery and maintaining clean work areas.

This is a full-time position offering the chance to develop skills in a specialized manufacturing setting, with opportunities for growth within the company.
