About Trillium Recruitment Group
Trillium Recruitment Group is a Canadian recruitment agency placing candidates at manufacturing employers across the Ottawa region and beyond. Founded in 1987, the team works with employer clients of all sizes, from small independents to multi-site operators, to fill roles quickly with vetted candidates.
About the role
You'll run production equipment through your shift: loading materials, starting and monitoring the machine, making minor adjustments to keep output in spec, and recording counts and downtime. You'll do routine checks and basic cleaning at changeover, flag anything that sounds or looks wrong to maintenance, and keep your area safe and organized. The work is hands-on and steady, with clear targets for the shift.
What you'll bring
You're reliable, safety-minded, and comfortable on your feet around moving equipment for a full shift. Prior machine-operation experience helps, but a willingness to learn, follow procedures exactly, and speak up when something's off matters more.
Trillium Recruitment Group manages this search. After applying, expect a brief phone screen with one of our recruiters before an interview with the client. We protect your information and only share it once you have consented.
