Shift: 1st Shift | Full-Time

Location: Plymouth

Why You’ll Want This Job

First-shift industrial roles at this pay rate do not stay open long. Due to an internal shift transfer, an immediate spot just opened up on a high-performing manufacturing team under energized new leadership that actively rewards hard work.

  • Strong Pay & Quick Advancement: Start at $20.00/hour with an automatic wage review and pay increase after completing your 90-day probationary period.

  • True 1st-Shift Stability: Keep your evenings and weekends while getting consistent, 40+ hour weeks in an essential, growing business with zero seasonal layoffs.

  • Level Up Your Forklift Skills: Move beyond ordinary pallet staging. You’ll be trained on high-precision handling techniques for unpalletized corrugated products—a high-demand skill set that sets your resume apart.

  • A Workplace That Values You: Fast-paced, supportive plant floor culture backed by a friendly front office (complete with office dogs!).

What You’ll Be Doing Daily

  • Operate Sit-Down Forklifts: Transport, stage, and stack finished corrugated sheets using standard forks.

  • Precision Load Handling: Pick up and position unpalletized stacks cleanly off bare concrete floors with total blade control.

  • Keep the Saw Line Moving: Pull finished materials directly from the saw line and manager stacker to maintain steady production flow.

  • Warehouse Staging: Read digital production boards, match fan shop run tags to customer orders, and stage freight accurately for shipping.

  • Safety First: Perform daily equipment walk-around inspections each morning to ensure smooth, damage-free operations.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience safely operating sit-down forklifts in fast-moving manufacturing or industrial facilities.

  • Sharp spatial awareness around team members, foot traffic, and tight aisles.

  • Steady hands and precision blade control to lift freight without causing product damage.

  • A dependable, coachable work ethic and the stamina to thrive in an active production environment.
