Our client, a well-established recycling and metal processing facility located in Pompano Beach, is seeking dependable Crane Operators to support nightly warehouse and production operations. This is an excellent opportunity for candidates looking to build a long-term career within the recycling and industrial sector while gaining hands-on experience operating remote-controlled crane systems.

Job Description

The Crane Operator will be responsible for operating remote-controlled overhead cranes inside the warehouse facility to move, load, and organize recyclable metal materials throughout the production area.

This position requires strong attention to safety, awareness of surroundings, and the ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced industrial environment. Candidates must be flexible, as schedules and shift hours may vary according to business needs and production demands.

The first three weeks of training will be completed during the day shift before transitioning to the overnight schedule.
