Forklift Operator

Milestone Industrial Steel

Job Description

Job Description

About us
Milestone Industrial Steel is a structural steel fabricator on 12 acres in Glendale. We handle procurement, in-house fabrication, and field erection for commercial, industrial, and custom residential projects across Arizona. We're growing, and we want people looking for a career, not just a job.

The role
You'll be the operator moving our heaviest material: long beams, columns, plate, and pipe coming off supplier trucks and finished steel going out to job sites. You'll run a 36,000 lb capacity forklift and a 10,000 lb combi (multi-directional) sideloader, and you'll do it safely, precisely, and without damaging material.

What you'll do

  • Unload incoming steel from flatbeds and stage it in the yard by job, size, and grade
  • Load outgoing trucks by job and sequence, balancing weight and protecting finished and painted pieces
  • Run the 36k forklift for heavy beams, columns, and bundled material
  • Run the 10k combi lift for long members, pipe, and tube in tight aisles and racks
  • Feed material to saws, beam lines, and fab bays as the shop needs it
  • Work with the shipping coordinator to check piece marks against shipping lists
  • Help drivers with dunnage, blocking, and load securement
  • Do daily pre-shift inspections and report maintenance issues right away
  • Keep the yard organized, aisles clear, and remnants tagged and stored

What we're looking for

  • 2+ years of forklift experience; heavy-capacity (15k+) and steel, lumber, or pipe yard experience strongly preferred
  • Combi, sideloader, or multi-directional forklift experience is a big plus
  • Understanding of load centers, capacity charts, and handling long or unbalanced loads
  • Able to read piece marks, tags, and basic material lists
  • Current OSHA forklift certification, or able to pass our evaluation and certification
  • Strong safety habits and awareness of ground crews, trucks, and overhead cranes
  • Able to work outdoors in Arizona heat and lift 50 lbs
  • Valid driver's license; reliable transportation

Nice to have

  • Overhead crane, rigging, or signal person experience
  • Knowledge of flatbed securement and DOT load rules
  • Familiarity with AISC shapes (W, HSS, C, L, pipe)
  • Bilingual English/Spanis h
