• Vendor & Contractor Coordination: Work alongside local Central Georgia industrial parts suppliers and specialized contractors (crane services, major electrical crews) to coordinate massive repairs or equipment upgrades.
• Environmental & Safety Compliance: Ensure all maintenance operations strictly adhere to OSHA, MSHA, and local Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) regulations, utilizing rigorous Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) and confined space entry protocols.

Required Qualifications & Regional Requirements

• Experience: 3 to 5+ years of heavy industrial mechanical maintenance experience, with direct experience in a ready-mix concrete plant, aggregate mine, or asphalt facility highly preferred.

• Mobility & Travel: Must possess a valid Georgia Driver’s License with a clean Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) to drive a company-provided service truck. Willingness to travel daily up to a 60-mile radius from the central hub.
• Schedule Flexibility: Ability to work early mornings, occasional nights, or alternating Saturdays to align maintenance windows with low-demand pour schedules.
• Physical Demands: Comfort working at heights (climbing silo ladders), in confined spaces (mixer drums/aggregates bins), lifting up to 75 lbs, and working outside in variable Central Georgia weather conditions.
