Steel Slitter Operator – 4x10 Schedule

Butler, IN

$20–$28/hour based on experience

1st and 2nd Shift Opportunities

Perfect Placement Group is recruiting for an established, family-owned steel processing manufacturer in Butler, Indiana. We are looking for an experienced Slitter Operator who understands industrial production, takes pride in running equipment correctly, and wants a stable long-term opportunity with a consistent schedule.

This is a direct-hire position, not a temporary assignment.

Schedule

1st Shift

Monday–Thursday: 6:00 AM–4:30 PM

Friday: 6:00 AM–2:30 PM as production requires

2nd Shift

Monday–Thursday: 4:30 PM–3:00 AM

Friday: 4:30 PM–1:00 AM as production requires

Second shift includes a $1/hour shift differential.

The core production schedule is four 10-hour days. Friday overtime may be required during periods of higher demand, so candidates should be comfortable with that expectation before applying.

What You’ll Do

You’ll work as part of a steel-processing line crew responsible for preparing and processing coiled steel through a slitting line.

Responsibilities include:

• Performing equipment and safety checks before production
• Setting up and operating steel slitting equipment
• Reading work instructions and production specifications
• Monitoring cutting speed, tension, blade alignment, and product quality
• Using hydraulic controls and machine settings
• Identifying equipment or quality issues before they become larger problems
• Working closely with setup personnel, helpers, and other production employees
• Maintaining a safe and organized work area

What We’re Looking For

We are especially interested in candidates with:

• Previous steel slitting, cut-to-length, coil processing, or similar machine-operation experience
• Mechanical aptitude
• Ability to read measurements, specifications, and production instructions
• Basic computer comfort
• Strong attention to detail
• Good safety habits
• Reliable work history
• Ability to work effectively as part of a production team

Candidates should be prepared to discuss the actual equipment they have operated, material handled, crane or material-handling exposure, and the responsibilities they personally owned.

What the Work Environment Is Really Like

This is an active steel-processing facility. Candidates should be prepared for:

• Working on their feet for much of a 10-hour shift
• Concrete production floors
• Industrial noise around operating equipment
• Required safety-toe footwear and other PPE
• Working around large steel coils and heavy industrial machinery
• A production environment where reliability and attendance matter

Qualified candidates will have an opportunity to walk through the facility and see the work environment before accepting an offer.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

The company offers:

• Direct-hire employment
• Core 4-day / 10-hour schedule
• Weekly attendance incentive
• Additional company bonus opportunities
• Medical, dental, and vision benefits
• 401(k) with company match
• PTO and vacation eligibility
• Paid holidays
• Company-provided uniforms
• Weekly catered employee lunch
• Opportunities to cross-train and develop additional steel-processing skills
• A smaller, family-owned environment where experienced employees can have a visible impact

If you have real steel-processing experience and are looking for a stable operation where you can build additional skills, we’d like to talk.
