About The Position

At SRM Concrete, we’re looking for a Plant Maintenance Technician who thrives on variety and takes pride in keeping things running—no matter what the day brings. If you enjoy working with your hands, solving problems on the fly, and making a real impact every shift, this could be the perfect fit for you. This role involves keeping our plant running strong by handling a wide range of maintenance tasks, inspecting equipment, performing scheduled preventative maintenance, and troubleshooting and repairing mechanical, electrical, and plumbing issues.

A key aspect of this role is ensuring the plant's safety by identifying and correcting hazards.

Strong communicator who works well both solo and as part of a team.
