Powder Coating Systems is looking to hire a Swing Shift Sand Blaster.

Our employees enjoy six paid holidays a year.

This position is responsible for counting in and blasting jobs to prepare for our coating process. 

The best candidates for this position are mechanically minded. They will work in a booth up to ninety percent of their shift.

Serious inquiries only, please.
