Working as a Process Operator in a 5-shift schedule with a solid salary and a predictable work pattern. At Modiform, you work an average of 33.6 hours per week and follow a fixed schedule: 6 days on, 4 days off. This means plenty of time off while still earning a competitive salary. Already an experienced operator? You'll quickly learn our process and take ownership of your production line. Not there yet but technically minded and eager to learn? We'll train you step by step to become a fully qualified Process Operator.
You'll work in a technical production environment involving extrusion and thermoforming. This is not standard manufacturing. During your shift, you're responsible for your own production line and ensure a challenging process with variable raw materials remains stable and delivers a high-quality end product.
