About this role
Working in Sherwin-Williams' Massillon paint plant, you'd be responsible for the core operations that turn raw materials into finished coatings. Your day involves selecting and measuring ingredients, operating high-speed mixers and dispersers according to batch instructions, making lab adjustments, and monitoring quality throughout the process. You'll also handle material management—using forklifts and other equipment to move inventory—keep production records, maintain equipment logs, and flag any breakdowns or quality issues promptly.
The role suits someone with manufacturing or distribution background, ideally with hands-on experience operating machinery, monitoring gauges and equipment performance, and working with batch processes or material handling. Even without that background, you need to be detail-oriented, safety-conscious, and comfortable following standard procedures while contributing ideas for process improvements. You'll collaborate across departments to meet production schedules and may mentor newer team members as you settle in.
This is a full-time, first-shift position based in Massillon, Ohio. Sherwin-Williams offers a range of benefits covering health care, retirement, and well-being programs; specifics are available through their benefits portal for candidates.
