About The Position

York Building Products is looking for a Plant Support Specialist who isn’t afraid to get their hands dirty and get the job done. You’ll be right in the middle of the action — working around crushers, conveyors, screens, stackers, and heavy equipment to keep our plant running safely and efficiently. If you’re mechanically minded, good at spotting problems, and the type of person who would rather fix it than walk past it, this could be the job for you! This is real, hands-on work in an active surface mining and aggregate production environment. That means big machines, moving equipment, dust, noise, vibration, and changing weather. You’ll be on your feet, climbing on and off equipment, bending, stooping, walking, lifting up to 50 pounds, and working both indoors and outdoors. At York Building Products, we’re not looking for someone to simply punch a clock. We’re looking for someone who takes pride in their work and wants to be part of a crew that gets things done. If you’re dependable, mechanically minded, safety-focused, and ready to roll up your sleeves and keep the plant running, we want to meet you.
