Forklift Shop Technician (Mechanical Repairs) 

Columbus, OH | Onsite 
Full-Time | Monday–Friday | 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM

This is NOT a forklift driving job. 

This is a hands-on mechanical role where you’ll be repairing, troubleshooting, and maintaining forklifts and material handling equipment in our shop. 

If you enjoy working with your hands, turning wrenches, solving mechanical problems, and learning how equipment works — this role is for you.

We support our customers by keeping their equipment running — and that starts with strong technicians.
