Forklift Operator

Description

Love driving a forklift? Like staying busy? Not afraid to get your hands dirty? Then you might be exactly who we’re looking for!

York Building Products is looking for a Forklift Operator/Laborer to help keep materials moving and customer orders rolling out the door. You’ll spend your day operating equipment, loading trucks, moving materials, building orders, and working alongside a team that gets the job done.

If you’re looking for a job where you’re moving, working, and making things happen — climb aboard!

• Drive it. Move it. Load it. Safely operate forklifts and other equipment to keep materials moving.
• Load and unload materials from all kinds of trucks.
• Pick, organize, move, and re-palletize materials so orders are ready to roll.
• Read loading and picking tickets and make sure every load is accurate and secure.
• Work with Supervisors, Customer Service, and Sales to make sure customers get what they ordered, when they ordered it.
• Operate various types of heavy equipment and machinery when needed.
• Complete daily equipment inspections and speak up when something isn’t right.

  Teamwork makes the yard work!

• Forklift experience is required.
• Comfortable around heavy equipment and machinery.
• You can read and follow detailed loading and picking instructions.

• Dependable, hardworking, and ready to stay busy.
• Comfortable working extended hours when needed.
• You’re a team player who can also get the job done without constant supervision.

It’s not a desk job — and that’s the point!

You’ll work both indoors and outdoors, moving materials and loading trucks in sunshine, rain, wind, heat, cold, and everything in between.

You’ll climb in and out of equipment, stay active, lift, bend, stoop, and keep things moving throughout the day.

If you like being on the move and seeing what you accomplished at the end of your shift, you’ll fit right in.

• Climb in and out of equipment repeatedly.
• Walk, sit, bend, stoop, and move around equipment and materials.
• Lift and move materials weighing up to 90 pounds
  .
