What you’ll do

As a Skid Steer Operator , you’ll be at the heart of operations - right on the floor where materials take shape. 
Your day-to-day:

  • Operate Equipment Safely: Run a skid steer to move, stockpile, load, and feed recyclable materials into conveyor systems.

  • Process Materials: Sort, grade, and manually handle specialty materials according to quality standards and team goals.

  • Inspect & Maintain: Conduct pre-shift equipment checks, complete paperwork, and immediately report maintenance or safety concerns.

  • Support Plant Operations: Assist with receiving incoming loads, directing facility traffic, and maintaining clean, safe work areas.

  • Prioritize Safety: Strictly follow environmental regulations, company policies, and look out for pedestrian and vehicle traffic.

 

 

Your strengths as a Skid Steer Operator

You are a natural fit for this role if:

  • You have 3+ months of experience operating a skid steer or similar mobile equipment (forklift or loader experience is a plus).

  • You thrive in a fast-paced, industrial environment and possess excellent situational awareness.

  • You are comfortable working in indoor/outdoor settings with exposure to dust, noise, machinery, and changing weather.

  • You can meet the physical demands of the role: sitting, standing, climbing in/out of equipment, and lifting up to 50 lbs.

  • You have a strong safety mindset and are ready to wear required PPE at all times (including 6-inch steel-toed boots).

  • You possess basic communication skills, problem-solving abilities, and a collaborative team attitude.


If you bring the same care to who you are as to what you do, we’d love to meet you!
