Build the Products That Protect America's Pavement

PMG Seal Master is an industry leader in pavement preservation products, manufacturing asphalt sealers and maintenance solutions used by contractors, municipalities, airports, and commercial customers across North America. We're looking for a hands‑on Production Associate to join our Tampa manufacturing team.

If your background includes batch production, industrial manufacturing, paint or coatings, adhesives, process manufacturing, concrete, asphalt, cement, or similar production environments, you'll likely find this role familiar. This isn't a warehouse position-it's a manufacturing role where you'll help produce quality products from raw materials while working alongside a small team that values safety, initiative, and craftsmanship.

You’ll play an active role in the entire production process, from staging raw materials to producing finished product.

Responsibilities include:

• Read and follow batch cards, production schedules, formulas, and work instructions.

• Measure, weigh, and add raw materials in the proper sequence using basic math and attention to detail.

• Operate mixers, tanks, pumps, hoses, valves, forklifts, and other production equipment.

• Transfer materials and finished product safely throughout the manufacturing process.

• Monitor product consistency and adhere to established quality standards throughout each batch.

• Complete production documentation accurately, including batch records and material usage.

• Stage raw materials and support inventory accuracy.

• Perform preventive maintenance activities, equipment inspections, and routine production housekeeping.

• Clean tanks, mixers, transfer equipment, and production areas to maintain safe and efficient operations.

• Support seasonal tank cleanouts, including confined‑space work using appropriate PPE and pneumatic chipping tools to safely remove hardened material buildup.

• Work safely around industrial equipment while following all company safety procedures, including respirator, PPE, hot work, and confined‑space requirements.

We're looking for team members who take pride in making a quality product and understand that consistency, accuracy, and safety matter every day.

• Manufacturing or industrial production experience involving batching, blending, mixing, coatings, adhesives, asphalt, concrete, cement, or similar process manufacturing.

• Experience following batch cards, formulas, recipes, or production instructions.

• Strong math skills and attention to detail.

• A proven commitment to quality standards and safe work practices.

• Mechanical aptitude and the ability to recognize equipment or process issues.

• Initiative, dependability, strong time management, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.

• Forklift experience is preferred but not required.

This is a hands‑on manufacturing environment that is hot, dusty, dirty, sticky, and fast‑paced. Team members spend their day working around industrial production equipment, moving materials, climbing ladders and platforms, and supporting every stage of the manufacturing process. During scheduled maintenance periods, team members also assist with equipment cleanouts and seasonal tank maintenance to keep production running safely and efficiently.

• Lift and move up to 50–75 pounds.

• Stand, walk, bend, climb, and work around production equipment throughout the shift.

• Safely operate around industrial machinery and moving equipment.

• Wear…
