Built Differently. Owned Together.
FORJAK Industrial isn't your typical construction and coatings company, and we're not looking for a typical Fleet & Equipment Mechanic.
Founded in 2001 in Circleville, Ohio, FORJAK was built on a simple belief: the people doing the work should share in the success. That's why in 2022, we became an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) company. When FORJAK wins, you win — literally.
We live by four values we call FIRE:
Family
· Integrity
· Resilience
· Excellence
FIRE represents the spirit that fuels FORJAK—who we are, how we work, and what we stand for every day.
The Role
The Fleet & Equipment Mechanic is part of our Facility & Shop team. You'll be responsible for keeping FORJAK's fleet and equipment safe, reliable, and ready. Performing routine maintenance, conducting inspections, and supporting repairs across a wide range of vehicles and tools. You'll do it with the problem-solving mindset and ownership mentality that defines everyone at FORJAK.
This isn't a clock-in, clock-out job. This is a career with a company that has your back, and proof of that is written into our ownership structure.
What You'll Own
On a given day, as a Fleet & Equipment Mechanic, you will:
- Perform routine maintenance and repairs, including oil changes, braking systems, washer systems, and filter replacements on a variety of medium-duty and smaller fleet vehicles, trailers, and equipment.
- Inspect forklifts and other equipment regularly to verify safe and proper working condition, performing minor repairs or adjustments as needed and escalating major issues to the supervisor promptly.
- Execute the red tag process to identify, document, and isolate unsafe or malfunctioning vehicles and equipment, coordinating with the Mechanic Manager to ensure red-tagged items are addressed without delay.
- Assist with maintenance and repair on a variety of tools and equipment, and support the outfitting of vehicles with necessary tools and accessories.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date service logs within the Internal Dashboard, ensuring all entries, including parts used, labor hours, and maintenance schedules are complete and current.
- Coordinate parts and supply runs as needed to support active maintenance and repair work, ensuring minimal downtime for the fleet.
- Ensure compliance with all maintenance schedules and report any issues or concerns to the supervisor promptly; proactive communication is expected in this role.
- Adhere to all company safety and work policies.
- Remain flexible, taking on miscellaneous duties as assigned by leadership to support evolving organizational needs.
Do You Have What It Takes?
We're not just filling a seat. We're adding someone to a team of owners.
You must bring:
- Valid Driver's License and auto insurance.
- 1–3 years of experience in automotive or equipment maintenance.
- Working knowledge of vehicle systems, including engines, transmissions, brakes, electrical systems, and hydraulics.
- Proficiency with automotive and maintenance tools, including power tools and diagnostic equipment.
- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
- Ability to maintain accurate records using computer applications including Google Suite and Microsoft Excel.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to stay organized under pressure.
- A team-first attitude—ego doesn't build great things; people do.
Even better if you have:
- Ability to perform basic welding, fabrication, and minor repairs.
- Basic wiring skills.
- Experience working in a fleet or equipment maintenance environment supporting field operations.
