M.L. Chartier Excavating - Webberville - Technician Jobs in Webberville, MI

Our shop is heated in the winter and we have very excellent air ventilated units with "Big Ass Fans" that circulate around on the ceiling.

On a day to day there are 2 mechanics at this location with 1 shop help. You might have some guys come from our Fair Haven location to assist at times when needed.

Our shop guys are working from 6:30AM - 5:00PM. As a mechanic, we do rely on you to ensure our trucks/equipment that are needed for the next day are fixed and ready to go the next morning so sometimes we might ask you to work late to do that.

Our shops provide all specialized heavy tools that are needed for our heavy duty equipment.

Our break room is a quiet place for you to take your breaks or lunches at. The break room includes a spacious table with chairs, Keurig, refrigerator, microwave, pizza oven, toaster and sink. We even have a TV for your viewing enjoyment!

We have a total of 5 bays and 1 wash bay.

Repair orders fluctuate depending on the season. Our shop manager handles each repair request, and they get dispersed to the team depending on the type and priority of each job.

Our parts ordering process is mostly managed by our upper management, John or Brian but there are times that the Techs may have to get involved and that is when they need a specific or specialized part and that is just to make sure everything is correct.

Our side work policy does allow side work, as long as it does not compete with the services we offer as an excavation service company. Our tools and equipment are not permitted to be used on any side work due to liability.

We have a State-of-the-art facility that we keep clean with the best equipment we could put in our shop. We offer a drive on lift that helps our Techs get under the trucks/equipment better.

We do have a Earn and Learn Program. This program allows our employees to work in our facility while taking classes to better themselves within the shop to receive certifications or degrees as technicians. We also have a team that you will be working with daily that has a vast knowledge and open to teaching other members of the team.

Our company is always evolving as we keep up with the demands of our industry. With this comes with a lot of opportunity for each team member to learn and grow more. We promote constantly in our company and always want our team members to have a goal to work towards, both big and small. Additionally, we encourage our team to speak up if there is an open opportunity that they might be interested in so we can consider them for more positions as our company continues to grow.

We like to conduct annual performance reviews with each team member, preferably in the winter months. This is a 2-lane review, where we express strengths and weaknesses of your performance, but also ask to hear what you feel your strengths and weaknesses are. We review special projects and award those areas and come up with a plan to help overcome those weak areas. We encourage all team members to let us know if there are any questions or concerns that they might have and if there are any areas that we may need to work on as well - one main question during a performance review is "what can we provide or do better in order to support you in your position?"

During orientation our safety manager, Mike, will go over a PowerPoint that highlights all the important safety steps to take when your out in the yard and shop. Mike will also give you a tour around the yard and shop showing you where all the fire extinguishers, first aid kits, and eye wash stations are located.

Our Techs and management team are always willing to teach and help grow younger or less experienced techs to help strengthen their skills and abilities.

Our shop gets involved in the community by sponsoring local youth sports teams, fundraisers, and upcoming school events. We love to partake in "touch a truck" events for children, as well as music in the parks all summer long!

As a company that wants to see more younger generations involved in trades we highly promote our company and job opportunities to our local high schools and tech schools during job fairs. We attend quarterly meetings with the tech programs in our communities and always extend an open invite to our local high schools to come tour our shops.

In 5 years, we see our shop continuing to expand and become even more in demand as our company continues to grow in all our other departments. The work and need for technicians will always be necessary, as we own our entire fleet.

Our applications are available online on our website; www.mlchartier.com/careers. It takes about 5 minutes to complete.

As a family owned company we believe that doing a phone screen doesn't always show us their full potential so we prefer to only do an in-person interview. We are hand shake kind of people.

When you come in for an interview you will be meeting with HR and the Shop Manager, Tim. Our goal is to learn all about your experience and what your eager to learn more about. Being able to understand your strengths and weaknesses in the shop helps us best place you in an area that would allow you to succeed.

Before hiring an applicant we do perform a background check as well as a drug screening. We do not perform personality tests.

We do not perform a skill assessment before hiring an application.

After an in-person interview, you should hear back within a few days.

Our hiring process is typically pretty quick. Usually the one thing that takes the longest is trying to work out a time/day that works best with you as well as our Shop Manager. Total time would be a week or less.

Our goal as a company is to make the interview go as casual and smooth as possible in order to make you feel comfortable.
