Job Type: Full-Time

Pay Rate: Starting at $22.00/hour (DOE)

Schedule: Monday – Friday, 6:00 AM – 4:00 PM (Saturdays as required by production schedule)

Position Overview

We are looking for a skilled, safety-first Heavy Forklift Operator stationed permanently at our concrete manufacturing plant. In this role, you will work entirely on-site: receiving large rolls of concrete as soon as they finish production, staging them in the yard, and loading them onto arriving 18-wheelers for transport.

This is a stationary plant role focused on safe, precise loading of heavy, oversized finished concrete rolls.

Key Responsibilities

Operate heavy-capacity yard forklifts exclusively at the manufacturing facility.

Take finished concrete rolls coming off the production line and move them directly to staging areas or outbound flatbed trailers.

Load and balance heavy concrete rolls onto arriving 18-wheelers safely, taking care of weight limits and proper placement.

Work alongside production crews, yard spotters, and third-party truck drivers to coordinate fast, incident-free loading.

Perform daily morning walk-arounds and equipment inspections (hydraulics, tires, fluids, lift integrity) before running machinery.

Keep loading pads, yard lanes, and staging rows clear, clean, and organized.

Qualifications

Experience: 5+ years of heavy forklift operation in an industrial yard, concrete plant, precast, or heavy manufacturing environment.

Loading Experience: Proven track record loading oversized, heavy cargo onto flatbed 18-wheelers.

Languages: Fully bilingual (English and Spanish) to communicate clearly with ground crew and outside truck drivers.

Reliability: Reliable personal vehicle for daily commuting to meet the 6:00 AM start time.

Work Environment: Comfortable working outdoors in all weather conditions on an active plant site.

How to Apply: In person at 4950 Spencer Hwy, Suite H, Pasadena, Texas 77505. Our online application is: Corepersonnel.zenople.com office number:346-352-1840
