INDUSTRIAL MAINTENANCE TECHNICIAN

Industrial Maintenance TechnicianPro Services Workforce Solutions has partnered with a cellulose insulation manufacturer in Jenison, MI to fill a direct hire opportunity for an Industrial Maintenance Technician on 3rd shift.This role is for a mechanically strong tech who can own the overnight shift. You'll keep conveyors, shredders, and packaging lines running, handle the everyday mechanical fixes, and know when to call in help on the bigger jobs. You don't need to be an expert in everything. You need a solid mechanical foundation, a willingness to do the small jobs as well as the big ones, and the commitment to stick with a team that wants you there.Our customer manufactures cellulose insulation. They buy paper, grind it, mix it with granular additives, and package the finished product, which contractors use for blown-in insulation. The plant runs several lines with minor variations between them, all on one flow line, so when something goes down, everything stops. That's why maintenance matters so much here.The maintenance team has a great culture. They get along, they're respectful, they want to help each other, and many of them have been there a long time. A lot of them are family guys who are working for a reason, not just showing up to a job. Tools are provided, and the shop has room to work on projects and fabricate.Pro Services is working to fill this role for the customer, and we stand behind this team and this opportunity.You're thorough and self-directed. If there's a list waiting for you at the start of the shift, you finish it. When you hit a problem, you use the tools and resources around you to work it out instead of needing a lot of back-and-forth. You'll jump on a breakdown, but you'll also grease, walk the lines, and handle the small stuff without being asked. Nobody here is above getting dirty.On an off shift, you and the foreman are the leaders on the floor. You communicate quickly and clearly, so production knows when a job is done and nobody is left waiting. You can move from one call to the next without losing track, and you know there are usually several ways to fix a problem. You also know when to bring someone else in and when to take a few minutes to help an operator understand the equipment.
