Transfer Operator

Road & Rail Services
Grand Rapids, MI

Job Title: Transfer Operator
Location: Grand Rapids, MI
Pay: $19.00/hour
Schedule: Day Shift | Full-Time
Bonus: Quarterly Safety Bonus

Join a Growing Team That Keeps Supply Chains Moving

Road & Rail Services (RRS) is expanding its Grand Rapids operations and hiring a safety-focused Transfer Operator to join our dedicated day shift crew. Since 1987, we've been delivering safe, reliable, and efficient transportation solutions-and as a Transfer Operator, you'll play a critical role in that mission.

A Day in the Life of a Transfer Operator

As a Transfer Operator, you'll spend your day outdoors transferring bulk materials-both hazardous and non-hazardous-between railcars and tank trucks. Using pumps, hoses, and valves, you'll prepare products for transfer by heating, sparging, or sampling. You'll climb railcars, work at heights, and sometimes wear full hazmat PPE to stay safe.

When transfer work slows down, you'll also help with maintenance of the yard and building to keep the site operating efficiently. This variety means no two days are exactly the same.

This role demands attention to detail and strict adherence to safety standards, as every transfer you complete helps keep critical products moving safely and on time.

What You'll Love About Being a Transfer Operator

  • $19/hr starting pay with overtime opportunities
  • Day shift schedule
  • Company-provided PPE plus annual steel-toed boot allowance
  • Full benefits: medical, dental, vision, and 401(k) plan

What It Takes to Succeed as a Transfer Operator

  • Valid driver's license
  • Ability to lift up to 60 pounds, climb ladders, and work outdoors in all weather conditions
  • Strong commitment to safety, teamwork, and reliability

Our Commitment to You

At Road & Rail Services, safety isn't just a priority-it's our way of life. We are dependable partners who operate with integrity and constantly seek to improve. We value adaptability and accountability and invest in our employees so they can build long-term, stable careers. As a Transfer Operator, you'll be part of a team that takes pride in protecting the environment and delivering quality every day.

Ready to Join Us?

If you want steady work with a growing company that values your hard work and dedication, apply today to become a Transfer Operator in Grand Rapids. Your contribution matters here-and we look forward to having you on board.
