Job description

Terminal Operator

Location: Tampa, FL

Starting Pay: $ 27 per hour + Overtime Opportunities

We are seeking a dependable and safety-focused Terminal Operator to join our terminal operations team in Tampa. This role is responsible for supporting the safe and efficient handling, transfer, storage, and movement of sulfuric acid and related materials within the terminal. If you enjoy hands-on work, thrive in an industrial environment, and are committed to safety and teamwork, we'd like to hear from you.

What You'll Do

As a Terminal Operator, you'll play a key role in keeping our terminal running safely, efficiently, and reliably. You'll work both independently and as part of a team to support the movement and storage of sulfuric acid, monitor terminal operations, perform inspections, and ensure equipment and systems are operating properly. No two days are exactly alike. You may be loading railcars or trucks, assisting with vessel discharge operations, troubleshooting operational issues, conducting inspections, or completing important documentation that keeps our operation moving smoothly.

Safety is at the center of everything we do, so we're looking for someone who takes pride in following procedures, watching out for their teammates, and maintaining a clean, organized work environment.

What We're Looking For

You thrive in a hands-on environment where safety, teamwork, and attention to detail matter. You bring experience from industrial, manufacturing, terminal, logistics, chemical, or related operations and enjoy solving problems, learning new skills, and being part of a team that keeps essential operations moving. Experience with rail operations, vessel discharge, hazardous materials, or computerized operating systems is a plus, but we're primarily looking for someone with a strong work ethic, a commitment to safety, and a willingness to learn.

The successful candidate must be willing and able to wear all required personal protective equipment (PPE) and work safely in an industrial environment. Candidates must also possess, or be eligible to obtain, a Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) card.

This role requires working outdoors, climbing ladders and stairs, as well as lifting up to 50 pounds. The position also requires occasional weekend and holiday work, as well as participation in an alternating on-call schedule to support terminal operations.

Work Environment

This position is primarily field based, with approximately 70-80% of work performed outdoors within terminal and port environments and 20-30% performed in an office setting. The work involves operating in an industrial environment where safety is the highest priority.

Why Join Us?

• Competitive pay starting at $27 per hour
• 100% employer-paid health insurance for employees
• 401(k) with company match
• Dental and Vision insurance
• Paid time off
• Life insurance
• Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
• Employee Assistance Program
• Professional development and training opportunities
• Stable, full-time employment with advancement potential
• Commitment to safety, training, and continuous improvement
