Iron Heart Canning, a mobile canning company that packages beer for many of North Carolina’s top craft breweries, is seeking a dependable, hardworking individual to assist on canning runs. The position offers hands-on training and tremendous growth potential for the right candidate.
RESPONSIBILITIES: As an assistant operator, you’ll serve an important support role for the lead canning line operator. Tasks include:
Unloading and setting up equipment in the morning, as well as breaking down and packing up at day’s end
Mixing sanitizing chemicals and thoroughly cleaning equipment
Weighing cans to ensure they contain just the right amount of beer

Collaborating with the head operator and brewery staff
Learning to efficiently and safely operate heavy packaging machinery
REQUIREMENTS: Ideal candidates for this position fit the following description:
Mechanical: Equipment doesn’t always work as it should. As an assistant operator, you’ll often need to independently troubleshoot issues and make on-site adjustments/repairs.
Physically Fit: Mobile canning requires strength, coordination, and endurance. You’ll need to hull 150-lb. pallets of cans, push the 800-lb. canning line into place (it is on wheels), stay on your feet for lengthy 12-hour shifts, and perform countless other physical tasks.
Flexible Schedule: Every week is different, depending on the breweries scheduled. Long hours and overnight stays are common.
Hardworking: Pride in your work, self-motivation, attention to detail, and a positive attitude are all essential.
Beer Knowledge: Home brewing or brewery experience is a big plus, as is a general appreciation for great craft beer. A major perk of working at Iron Heart, after all, is visiting breweries throughout North Carolina and sampling the region’s best suds.
