• Communicate effectively with team members and follow instructions to meet production goals.
• Adapt to different general labor roles within the facility based on operational needs.

Essential Skills

• Reliability and strong work ethic in a production and manufacturing setting.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Familiarity with chemical processes or working around industrial materials is a plus.
• Ability to independently organize and gather materials needed for mixing tasks.
• Previous experience in manufacturing or production environments is advantageous.
• Strong teamwork and communication skills in a fast-paced setting.

Work Environment

This role is based in an open-bay manufacturing facility with a non-climate-controlled environment. The work area can be very hot during the summer and cold during the winter, and the nature of the products creates a dirty, dusty atmosphere. The position follows a 2-2-3 schedule with 12-hour shifts from either 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. or 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m., typically working two days on, two days off, and three days on, with alternating sets of weekdays and weekends on and off.
