Machine Operator - 290 Madsen Drive, Bloomingdale, IL 60108

Reports to Production Supervisor

ABOUT KORPACK

Korpack is a growing, privately held packaging solutions company in the western Chicago suburbs, providing contract packaging, packaging materials, and automation to leading consumer brands. We run food-grade (SQF) production across two facilities and are investing heavily in people, systems, and a new 350,000 sq ft expansion. Two things define how we work: efficiency — lines that run to standard, every shift — and accuracy — work orders, inventory, and shipments that are right the first time in our ERP (Acumatica).

POSITION SUMMARY

Machine Operators keep our filling and packaging equipment running smoothly and to standard. You are the hands-on core of the line: when the machine runs efficiently and the output is right, the whole plant wins. This role is about consistency — steady, accurate, safe production, hour after hour.

KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES

• Operate filling and packaging equipment to standard — startups, changeovers, and steady-state running.
• Support machine efficiency and flow — keep the line fed, cleared, and moving; flag anything slowing it down.
• Perform basic quality and safety checks — catch defects early and escalate immediately.
• Maintain a clean and organized work area — food-grade housekeeping is part of the job, not extra.

DAY-TO-DAY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Run assigned equipment per the work order and line instructions
• Complete basic quality checks at required intervals and record results
• Assist with changeovers, line clears, and end-of-shift cleanup
• Report jams, defects, or unsafe conditions to your Line Lead immediately
• Support teammates and rotate stations as directed

WHAT YOU BRING

• Reliable attendance and a steady, safety-first work style
• Prior production, packaging, or machine operation experience preferred (not required — we train)
• Comfort standing for a full shift and lifting up to 50 lbs
• Willingness to follow food-safety (SQF/GMP) practices
