We’re looking for a seasoned millwright – someone who’s been doing this a long time and knows how to manage the work day from start to finish. This is a working terminal, not a training shop. If you’ve spent 5+ years around conveyors, gearboxes, bearings, motors, and heavy rotating equipment, you’ll understand what the job takes.

Diagnose problems quickly and fix them the right way

Have performed full mechanical rebuilds — not just parts swaps

What you’ll be doing:

Maintain and repair conveyor systems, gearboxes, motors, bearings, and drive components

Perform alignments, rigging, welding, and precision mechanical work

Support operations to keep production moving and downtime low

Follow lockout/tagout, PM programs, and terminal safety standards

What we expect:

5+ years millwright or heavy industrial mechanical experience

Strong experience in bulk material handling, terminals, plants, or similar environments

Able to read prints, lead by example, and take ownership of assigned work

Comfortable working outdoors and around marine equipment

Willing to work overtime, nights, or weekends when the job demands it

What we offer:

Stable, long‑term work at a fixed terminal (not a short outage)

Competitive pay with consistent overtime

Relocation assistance or per diem available for high level millwrights

Benefits available

A maintenance group that respects experience, accountability, and craftsmanship
