Forklift Operator - 1st Shift!

Description

Now Hiring: Forklift Operator | Paisley Farm | Willoughby, OH

Paisley Farm is hiring an experienced Forklift Operator to join our Willoughby team.

We’re part of The Fremont Company, a family-owned food manufacturer that’s been making quality food since 1905. At Paisley Farm, we produce bean salads and pickled vegetables under our “Farm Fresh Flavor, Made Easy” brand, and our Forklift Operator keeps the whole operation moving.

As our Forklift Operator, you’ll keep the production lines stocked, move finished product off the floor, and get trucks loaded and out on time. When the line needs materials, you’re there. When product comes off the end, you’re there. When the truck pulls in, you’re already staged. If you know your way around a forklift and take pride in running safe and efficient, we want to talk to you.
