Transload Operator

Road & Rail Services

Transload Operator

Starting Pay: $20.00/hour Schedule: MondayFriday, Day Shift (occasional weekends) Location: Detroit, MI Join a Leader in Rail & Transload Operations

Road & Rail Services is hiring a Transload Operator for our Detroit, Michigan terminal. Since 1987, we've provided industry-leading rail, transload, and logistics services across North America. Our team supports some of the nation's largest railroads and manufacturers by handling products safely, efficiently, and with integrity.

We're a company that values safety, dependability, and long-term growth. If you're dependable, enjoy physical work, and want to learn new skills in a stable industry, we want to hear from you.

About the Role As a Transload Operator, you'll work outdoors transferring hazardous and non-hazardous materials between rail tank cars and tanker trucks. This is a hands-on position that involves mechanical operation, climbing railcars, and ensuring every transfer meets EPA, FRA, and OSHA standards. You'll use pumps, hoses, and valves to move products safely, monitor equipment during transfers, and complete required inspection and transfer logs.

Each day brings variety - from preparing materials for transfer by heating or venting, to checking for leaks or equipment issues, to communicating with drivers and supervisors to keep operations on schedule. You'll receive full safety training, protective gear, and ongoing support from a team that puts safety first.

What We're Looking For We're looking for reliable, motivated individuals who take pride in a job done right. Candidates should have a high school diploma or GED, a valid driver's license, and the ability to lift up to 60 lbs and work in all weather conditions. Prior experience in industrial labor, construction, warehouse, or mechanical work is helpful but not required - we'll train you. Because this role sometimes requires the use of a respirator, you must be clean shaven for proper fit.

Why Work With Us Road & Rail Services offers competitive pay and benefits including medical, dental, vision, and 401(k) with company match. You'll receive paid holidays and vacation, all required PPE and safety gear, and an annual steel-toed boot allowance. We provide structured on-the-job training and a promote-from-within culture, giving you a clear path for career advancement.

We are a veteran-friendly employer and believe in rewarding reliability, safety, and teamwork.

Apply Today If you're ready to build a career in the rail and transload industry with a company that values your safety and success, apply today to join Road & Rail Services in Detroit as a Transload Operator.

Be part of the team that keeps America's freight moving - safely and efficiently.
