Descripción del empleo

Are you a dedicated industrial professional seeking a stable, full-time role within a growing facility? We are currently hiring a skilled Mill Operator to join a premier rubber manufacturing facility located conveniently near the Waterloo and Guelph area in Ontario. As an integral team member in our manufacturing & logistics operations, the Mill Operator plays a critical role in the initial processing of high-grade rubber compounds. Your expertise ensures raw materials are properly prepared, warmed, and milled to exact specifications, setting the stage for downstream production excellence. In this full-time role within our manufacturing & logistics division, your primary focus will be breaking down raw rubber by rolling and heating it on the mill. Once the material reaches the precise temperature and texture required, you will deliver it to the calender for sheeting. Additionally, you will compound material on the mill according to production routers, monitor material quality, and ensure raw materials remain free of debris or contaminants. This role works directly alongside calender operators and back-end operators to keep production flowing smoothly, efficiently, and safely. This position operates on a 12-hour continental day shift schedule (4:45 AM to 5:00 PM). Because this manufacturing site is situated outside of central Waterloo/Guelph and is not located on a public bus route, applicants must possess reliable personal transportation to commute for scheduled shifts. Candidates with prior experience in rubber milling, calender operation, or heavy machinery setup are strongly encouraged to apply; however, candidates with general manufacturing experience and a strong mechanical aptitude are also welcome.

Skills required

• Strong mechanical aptitude and hands‑on operational capability with industrial machinery.
• Ability to perform physical work including rolling, lifting, and handling rubber materials throughout a 12-hour shift.
• Excellent attention to detail for inspecting material quality, texture, and temperature.

Advantages

• Competitive starting wage of $23.50/hour plus exceptional shift premiums while working afternoon or weekend hours.
• Predictable 12-hour continental day shift schedule (4:45 AM - 5:00 PM), allowing for extended days off.
• Opportunity to build a long‑term career in a high-demand specialized rubber manufacturing facility.
• Full-time, stable hours within a dynamic manufacturing & logistics environment.
• Direct path to permanent employment (Temp-to-Perm opportunity).
• Paid uniforms, safety shoes allowance, and all necessary P.P.E. provided.
• One of the best area benefit programs upon perm hire, including 100% employer‑paid health, drug, vision, STD/LTD, and family life insurance.
• Generous retirement savings pension matching up to 5% + 1% (total contribution potential up to 11%) upon perm hire.
• Exciting employee appreciation events.
