Schedule: Fireman Schedule (36 hours one week / 48 hours the next)
Benefits: Available Day 1



Company Overview

I'm partnered with a Fortune 500 consumer products manufacturer whose products are found in homes across North America every day. Their Wheeling facility manufactures well-known household brands and has built a reputation for employee stability, safety, and long-term career growth.

With many senior maintenance professionals approaching retirement, the company is actively investing in the next generation of maintenance talent and offers a clear path for advancement.

  • Repair pumps, motors, conveyors, gearboxes, and material handling equipment
  • Support equipment rebuilds and reliability improvement initiatives
  • Utilize SAP/CMMS systems to document maintenance activities
  • Follow all Lockout/Tagout and safety procedures
  • Work closely with operations to minimize downtime and improve performance


What We're Looking For

  • High School Diploma or GED
  • Completion of a maintenance apprenticeship program OR 2+ years of industrial maintenance experience
  • Experience troubleshooting equipment in a manufacturing environment
  • Strong mechanical aptitude with hydraulic and pneumatic systems
  • Welding and machining experience required
  • Ability to read blueprints and mechanical drawings
  • SAP or CMMS experience preferred
  • Strong commitment to safety and teamwork


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Fortune 500 manufacturing company
  • Union environment
  • Benefits start on Day 1
  • Significant overtime opportunities
  • Strong job stability with no history of layoffs at the facility
  • Career growth opportunities driven by upcoming retirements within the maintenance team
  • Work alongside highly experienced maintenance professionals and learn from industry veterans
  • Products manufactured are used by millions of consumers every day
  • Competitive 401(k), medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and additional employee benefits
