Production Team Member

Build Your Career at Uniform Color

At Uniform Color, we’re not just looking for someone to fill a spot on the production floor. We’re looking for people who want to learn, contribute, and build a career with a company that values the work they do.

We’re a family-owned manufacturer in Holland, MI, and our average employee has been with us for 11 years. That kind of longevity doesn’t happen by accident. We take care of our people, invest in their growth, and create opportunities for those who are willing to learn and put in the work.

You’ll be trained across different areas of our production floor, and through our Pay for Knowledge program, you can earn a raise as you become trained in additional areas. Many of our supervisors and team leads started right here as production employees.

If you’re someone who likes working with your hands, enjoys staying busy, and wants a job where you can actually grow, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Get

• Competitive Pay
  • Starting pay based on experience
  • Day Shift (4am–4pm): $19–$23/hr
  • Night Shift (4pm–4am): $20–$24/hr
  • Pay for Knowledge: Earn a raise for each area you become cross-trained in, reaching the top of the range in about 9 months
  • Merit increases
  • Two bonuses each year — June and December
• Benefits Starting Day One
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with a 3.5% company match
  • 80 hours of vacation available right away, prorated based on your hire date
  • 9 paid holidays

Your Schedule

Work a rotating 12-hour schedule with the same two-week rotation, so you always know when you'll be working.

• Week 1: Mon, Tue, Fri, Sat
• Week 2: Sun, Wed, Thu

Then the schedule repeats. You'll average 3 to 4 shifts per week, giving you more full days off while still having a consistent schedule.

What You'll Do

As a Production Operator, you’ll learn multiple areas of our manufacturing process, including:

• Material Handling
• Mixing
• Extrusion
• Packaging
• Producing high-quality custom color concentrates to meet customer specifications
• Following safety procedures and wearing required PPE
• Keeping your work area clean and organized
• Speaking up when you see a quality, mechanical, or safety concern
• You won’t be expected to know everything on day one. We’ll train you on our processes and give you the tools to succeed.

What You Bring

Required:

• Ability to stand and walk for up to 11 hours during your shift
• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs.
• Ability to climb stairs throughout the day
• Willingness to learn and work as part of a team

Preferred:

• Manufacturing experience
• Plastics or extrusion experience
• Equipment operation experience

Relevant experience may qualify you for a higher starting rate.

No manufacturing experience? That’s okay. If you have the right attitude and are willing to learn, we’ll teach you the rest.

Why Uniform Color?

At Uniform Color, you’re more than just a new hire — you’re someone we want to see grow.

We believe some of our best leaders are already here. Many of our supervisors and team leads started on the production floor and worked their way up by learning the business, taking on new responsibilities, and showing us what they could do.

One of our recent team members started as a Production Operator, moved into a Back-Up Lead role, and then became a Team Lead — all within his first year. He showed up ready to learn, worked hard, and took advantage of opportunities to grow. We noticed. That’s the kind of person we’re looking for.

You don’t need to have your entire career figured out when you walk through our doors. Come ready to work, ready to learn, and ready to grow — and we’ll invest in you along the way.
