Niles, IL | $20-$25/hour, up to $30/hour for highly qualified candidates | Full-Time

A leading premium packaging manufacturer is seeking Die Cutting Operators to join its growing 3rd shift team.

  • Monitor product registration, quality, and production speeds
  • Troubleshoot equipment and perform basic maintenance
  • Work with complex packaging jobs where precision and attention to detail are critical
  • Follow job tickets and complete production paperwork
  • Support continuous improvement and efforts to reduce make-ready time
What We're Looking For

  • Experience operating die cutting equipment
  • Packaging/folding carton manufacturing experience
  • Foil stamping experience strongly preferred
  • Embossing and blanking experience are a plus
  • Strong mechanical aptitude and attention to detail
  • Experience with high-speed, high-volume, or custom packaging is preferred
  • BOBST, Heidelberg, Jagenberg, or comparable equipment experience is a plus
  • High school diploma or GED

Schedule: 3rd Shift, 9:45 PM-6:15 AM
Pay: $20-$25/hour, with up to $30/hour available for exceptional candidates
Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), wellness programs, and career growth opportunities.

If you're an experienced die cutting operator looking for a stable opportunity with a growing premium packaging manufacturer, we'd like to hear from you.
