PrideStaff

Job Description

Job Description

Are you ready to make a tangible impact on the environment? We are looking for energetic, hardworking individuals to join our team as Recycling Sorters . In this role, you are the frontline of sustainability, ensuring that recyclable materials are properly processed and kept out of landfills.

If you enjoy a fast-paced, physical environment where the day flies by, we want to hear from you!

What You’ll Do

As a Recycling Sorter, you will work on a moving conveyor line within our Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). Your primary goal is to ensure high-quality sorting of paper, plastics, and metals.

  • Precision Sorting: Identify and separate recyclable materials from a moving stream with speed and accuracy.
  • Quality Control: Proactively remove contaminants and non-recyclable items to meet industry standards.
  • Operational Safety: Follow all safety protocols to maintain a secure work environment for yourself and your team.
  • Team Collaboration: Communicate effectively with supervisors and coworkers to keep the workflow smooth and efficient.
  • Site Maintenance: Keep your workstation clean and clear of debris to ensure maximum productivity.

Work Environment

  • Industrial Setting: You will work in a high-energy, non-climate-controlled facility.
  • Dynamic Conditions: Expect a loud environment with exposure to dust, odors, and varying temperatures depending on the season.
  • Physical Activity: This role requires standing for the duration of your shift, repetitive motion, and constant alertness.

Qualifications & Requirements

We value a strong work ethic over a long resume. If you are dependable and ready to work, you’ll fit right in.

  • Physical Stamina: Ability to stand, bend, twist, and reach for 8–10 hour shifts.
  • Strength: Must be able to lift between 25–50 lbs as needed.
  • Reliability: Ability to work assigned shifts, including potential rotating schedules.
  • Team Player: A positive attitude and the ability to work well with others in a production-focused setting.
  • Experience: Previous experience in warehouse, labor, or production roles is a plus, but not required. We will train the right candidate!
  • Shift/Hours:  Monday - Friday 1st shift (8:00 AM – 4:30 PM)
