What You’ll Be Doing

- Comfort using computer systems (SAP, Command Alkon, Marcotte) or automated batching controls in a production setting
- A proactive, problem-solving mindset to adapt to fast-paced and variable conditions
Work Environment
This role is based at a ready‑mix concrete plant and involves working both in a control room and in outdoor industrial settings.
