About this role

Landscape Forms manufactures outdoor site furnishings and community spaces, and this first-shift assembly role offers a direct path into stable manufacturing work. You'll move between material prep, powder coating, woodworking, assembly, and packaging—checking quality, operating equipment safely, and supporting different production areas as needed. The position demands physical capability (lifting to 50 pounds, standing throughout the shift) and attention to detail, but rewards reliability with a consistent Monday-Thursday schedule, weekends off, and the possibility of Friday overtime when needed.

The compensation package extends beyond the $17/hour base. Quarterly bonuses average $11,000 annually, and you gain immediate access to earned wages through UKG Wallet. Health, dental, and vision coverage start on day one at rates as low as $13.75 weekly, plus the company covers life insurance, offers 401(k) matching, and provides tuition reimbursement for those interested in developing further skills. These benefits reflect Landscape Forms' stated commitment to investing in employees as much as products.

Success in this role hinges on showing up consistently, caring about craftsmanship and quality, and being willing to learn and adapt across different work stations. If you're looking for manufacturing work with genuine stability, reasonable pay, solid benefits, and a company where people tend to build long-term careers, this is worth considering.
