Industrial Millwright

$28 - $32 per hour

Tom Trese Networking LLC

Industrial Millwright – Apprentice

Manual Machining & Die Repair Location: Skokie, IL Pay: $28.00–$32.00/hour Schedule: 1st Shift

Overview

A respected metal fabrication operation is adding an Industrial Millwright to work directly alongside a seasoned veteran who is ready to pass on decades of hands-on knowledge. One of two long-tenured tool room employees recently retired, and the remaining specialist wants to bring in someone eager to learn the trade the right way.

This is not a role where you will be thrown into the deep end alone. The expectation is that the right person comes in with some mechanical foundation, a willingness to absorb a lot, and the attitude to build something long term. The tool room is clean, organized, and climate-controlled. The environment reflects the standard the team holds itself to.

What the Job Involves

  • Learn and perform inspection, repair, and refurbishment of dies, punches, and production tooling under direct mentorship
  • Fabricate replacement components and tooling solutions using manual machine tools
  • Operate lathes, milling machines, surface grinders, drill presses, and related equipment
  • Read and interpret engineering drawings and blueprints where available
  • Apply hands-on judgment for legacy tooling that has no existing prints
  • Use precision measurement instruments including micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, and height gauges
  • Support tooling setup, alignment, and adjustments to maintain product quality and dimensions
  • Assist production teams during changeovers, setups, and startups as needed
  • Maintain tooling inventory and keep accurate records of repairs and modifications
  • Follow all safety, quality, and housekeeping standards

What They Need

High school diploma or GED required; technical or vocational training is a strong plus

Background in manual machining with hands-on lathe and mill experience preferred

Mechanically inclined candidates without formal machining experience will be considered if they show strong aptitude and genuine eagerness to learn

Blueprint reading skills are a plus

Reliable, team-oriented, and committed to a clean and organized work environment

Someone who wants to learn a trade properly, not shortcuts
