About this role
At GME Supply, our fabrication shop doesn't just fulfill orders—we build the critical links that keep infrastructure, telecom, and industrial lifting operations running safely.
- As a Rigging & Wire Rope Fabrication Specialist , you will step away from routine warehouse shelf-stocking and step into specialized, hands-on production.
- You’ll transform raw wire rope and heavy-duty fittings into certified, custom lifting slings and assemblies used across North America.
- If you have mechanical aptitude, take pride in working with your hands, and want to master a high-demand industrial trade with paid on-the-job training, your workbench is ready.
- Master Custom Fabrication: Measure, cut, and manufacture custom wire rope slings and high-capacity lifting assemblies tailored to exact job specifications.
- Operate Heavy Industrial Equipment: Run hydraulic swaging presses, industrial cut-off saws, mechanical crimpers, and specialized rigging tools with safety and precision.
- Inspect for Flawless Quality: Conduct thorough inspections on finished assemblies to ensure every single turnback, sleeve, and fitting meets rigorous safety and structural standards.
- Drive Shop Flow & Material Movement: Safely operate forklifts to transfer heavy reels, position materials, and stage completed assemblies for dispatch.
- Track & Manage Production: Use basic shop computer systems to process customer job orders, log technical fabrication data, and track real-time output.
- Collaborate in a Safety-First Shop: Maintain a spotless, organized work station, collaborate closely with fellow fabricators, and participate in ongoing company-sponsored training to continuously expand your equipment and rigging expertise.
