Every day, our team takes pride in rolling up their sleeves to create products that are mindful of the environment.
Join us as a Skid Steer Operator in Buffalo and help bring materials to life in a workplace where health and safety always come first.
Taking care of our people is in our nature - so you’ll enjoy:
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.
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!
