Required Experience

Direct experience as a Truss Loader/Bunker is mandatory. Applicants must have previous hands-on experience working at the end of the production process in a roof and/or floor truss manufacturing facility. General warehouse, lumber yard, construction, forklift, or material-handling experience does not replace the required truss loading/bunking experience.

Staging completed truss packages

Organizing trusses for delivery

Safely moving and handling finished trusses

Preparing and loading truss packages onto delivery vehicles

Dependable transportation

Excellent attendance and reliability

Ability to work effectively with production and delivery teams

Ability to work overtime when required by production schedules

Physical Requirements

This is a highly physical position that requires extended periods of standing, walking, bending, reaching, pushing, pulling, and handling building materials. Candidates must be accustomed to the physical demands of working around completed roof and floor trusses and understand proper team-handling and equipment-assisted procedures.

We are specifically looking for someone who has already performed this job in a truss manufacturing environment and can step into the operation with an understanding of how finished trusses are stacked, bunked, staged, organized, and prepared for delivery.
