Job Description

Millwright – Marine / Terminal Maintenance

Location: Braithwaite, LA

Pay: $36-$44 per hour + overtime + benefits + per diem or relocation

Relocation / Per Diem: Available for High‑level candidates

We’re looking for a seasoned millwright — someone who’s been doing this a long time and knows how to manage the work day from start to finish. This is a working terminal , not a training shop. If you’ve spent 5+ years around conveyors, gearboxes, bearings, motors, and heavy rotating equipment, you’ll understand what the job takes.

This role is for professionals who:

• Diagnose problems quickly and fix them the right way
• Have performed full mechanical rebuilds — not just parts swaps
• Can work independently, safely, and make sound decisions in real‑world conditions

What you’ll be doing:

• Maintain and repair conveyor systems, gearboxes, motors, bearings, and drive components
• Perform alignments, rigging, welding, and precision mechanical work
• Support operations to keep production moving and downtime low
• Follow lockout/tagout, PM programs, and terminal safety standards

What we expect:

• 5+ years millwright or heavy industrial mechanical experience
• Strong experience in bulk material handling, terminals, plants, or similar environments
• Able to read prints, lead by example, and take ownership of assigned work
• Comfortable working outdoors and around marine equipment
• Willing to work overtime, nights, or weekends when the job demands it

What we offer:

• Stable, long‑term work at a fixed terminal (not a short outage)
• Competitive pay with consistent overtime
• Relocation assistance or per diem available for high level millwrights
• Benefits available
• A maintenance group that respects experience, accountability, and craftsmanship

If you’re a high level Millwright who takes pride in keeping equipment running and wants a place where experience is recognized and valued, apply here.
