Production Operator/Material Handler

Experienced Night Production Associate (2-2-3 Schedule | $20 - $25/hr)

A top-tier manufacturing facility in Mitchell, SD is hiring full-time production workers to join their growing night-shift team.

Forget the boring assembly line jobs. In this role, you will be the backbone of our heavy machinery operations, earning a premium wage while enjoying excellent work-life balance.

Why This Job Stands Out

• Excellent Pay: Earn $20.00 to $25.00 per hour based on your manufacturing experience.
• More Days Off: The 2-2-3 rotating schedule means you only work 15 days a month and get a 3-day weekend every other week!
• Consistent Night Hours: Work 5:45 PM to 6:00 AM without constantly flipping your sleep schedule between day and night shifts.
• Local Stability: Work for an essential employer right here in Mitchell with rock-solid job security.
• Great Benefits: Access medical, dental, vision, and retirement plans through our agency.

What You Will Do

• Feed the Machines: Prepare and load massive rolls of paperboard into high-speed production equipment.
• Keep Quality High: Inspect materials constantly to spot flaws before they reach the customer.
• Drive Forklifts: Safely move large product rolls around the warehouse floor.
• Team Up: Work closely with the machine operator to hit daily production goals.
• Stay Safe: Keep your workspace clean and follow all plant safety rules.

What We Look For

• Strength & Stamina: Ability to lift up to 50 pounds and stand for 12-hour shifts.
• Night Owls: Comfort working consistent 12-hour night shifts.
• Reliability: A track record of showing up on time and working hard.
• Experience: previous experience in manufacturing, farming, construction, or warehouse work is a huge plus.
