Full Job Description

Excavator Operator

Company Overview

M&M Recycling is a leading scrap metal recycling company and a family-run business that values progress, production, and people. We play a key role in keeping materials out of landfills and turning scrap into valuable resources.

As we continue to grow, we are looking for skilled equipment operators who want long-term careers in the scrap metal industry, not just a job for today.

The Opportunity

As an Excavator Operator with M&M Recycling, you will operate heavy equipment to process and prepare scrap metal for recycling. You will be a key player in keeping the yard running safely and efficiently, and you will be trained to operate specialized machinery, including our scrap metal baler and scrap shear.

This role is a strong opportunity for an experienced heavy equipment operator who wants to learn new skills, work with modern recycling equipment, and grow into higher-responsibility roles within our Career Tracks.

What You'll Do

Safely operate an excavator and baling equipment to process clean, sorted metal scrap, with on-the-job training on our Harris Centurion baler.
Sort, clean, and separate different types of scrap metals to produce high-quality, market-ready bales that meet customer and production standards.
Direct truck drivers to proper unloading locations and help maintain safe, efficient traffic and material flow throughout the yard.
Perform daily pre-trip inspections and routine maintenance checks to keep equipment in safe, reliable working order and report issues promptly.
Maintain a clean, organized, and hazard-free work area around machines, baling zones, and traffic lanes.

What Success Looks Like

Within the first 90 days, consistently operate the excavator and baler safely, following all yard procedures and meeting established production targets.
Regularly produce clean, properly sorted, and market-ready bales with minimal rework, contamination, or downtime.
Maintain a safe, organized work area and complete inspections, lubrication, and basic maintenance tasks without reminders.
Be recognized as a reliable team member who can step into other yard tasks and equipment as needed to keep operations running smoothly.

What We're Looking For

Previous experience operating heavy equipment, such as excavators; experience in a scrap yard or recycling facility is a plus.
Comfort working outdoors in all weather conditions and performing physical labor throughout the shift.
Strong attention to detail and a commitment to safety, quality, and meeting production goals every day.
A team-focused mindset, solid work ethic, and willingness to learn new equipment and processes through on-the-job training.

Compensation and Benefits

Competitive pay and benefits
On-the-job training for specialized machinery and clear Career Tracks for growth
Full-time position
Hours: 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Monday - Friday and 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Saturday (subject to change)

How to Apply

If you are a reliable heavy equipment operator who wants to build a long-term career in the scrap metal industry, apply today with your resume or work history. M&M Recycling completes pre-employment drug testing.
