IMI Industrial Services Group
Athens, GA Full Time
POSTED ON 6/30/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/29/2026
About Us

IMI houses a large, fully operational machine shop where our team prides themselves on solving complex problems and applying innovative solutions that our competitors often find more difficult. A turnkey provider of heavy machining, maintenance support, and in-house engineering, IMI has provided machining services for automotive, mining, construction, marine, steel production, manufacturing, and power companies.

While IMI embraces technology, we do not turn from traditional machining methods. Industrial contracting requires adaptability between technology and human interaction. We believe that no amount of technology alone can produce the same precise hand and eye coordination and inherent knowledge of our skilled craftsmen.

Life With Us

Our culture at IMI resembles a tight-knit family and our clients are treated with the same high regard we treat each other. Our commitment to safe operations allows everyone from our team, and our customers’ team, to return home safe and sound each night. Our core values of Safety, Integrity, Quality, and Production, drive our promise to ourselves and accountability to our clients.
