Assembler (1st Shift)

Valmet
Lenox, MA Full Time
POSTED ON 9/22/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 12/11/2026
Do you enjoy working with machinery, troubleshooting mechanical issues, and rebuilding equipment? Valmet is looking for a Mechanical Assembler to join our Lenox, MA team.

This is not a repetitive production assembly position. In this role, you'll disassemble industrial equipment returned from customer sites, inspect components for wear and damage, perform repairs, and rebuild machinery to meet quality and performance standards. You'll use mechanical drawings, precision measuring tools, and your mechanical aptitude to help restore equipment to like-new condition.

We're looking for individuals who enjoy hands-on work and take pride in solving mechanical challenges. Experience in industrial maintenance, manufacturing, equipment repair, automotive or diesel mechanics, machining, or related trades is a plus, but it is not required. Candidates should be able to read mechanical drawings, use measuring tools such as calipers and micrometers, and apply basic shop math. We are committed to training the right candidate and encourage applicants with strong mechanical aptitude, a willingness to learn, and a positive attitude to apply, even if they don't meet every qualification listed.

We offer

We offer a dynamic work environment that values innovation and suits development-minded people who enjoy working in a fast-paced and energetic setting with opportunities for continual growth. We're looking for team-oriented people with a willingness to learn and contribute to our customers’ success. This includes a generous wage starting between $19-$26/hour*.

Other Benefits Include

  • Company-funded pension plan (fully vested after 3 years)
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Flexible 1st shift schedule
  • Three weeks of vacation during your first year
  • Paid holidays
  • Overtime opportunities
  • Paid Massachusetts Hoisting License training
  • Career growth and advancement opportunities

Please note that any offer of employment is contingent upon a background check and pre-employment physical and drug screen.

  • Pay range is intended to provide a general guideline. Actual compensation will be determined based on market data, internal equity, and candidate credentials.
