Position Overview
We are looking for experienced Production Operators to join our CAM plant production organization.
The position is primarily a field operator role, not a control room operator role. The work focuses on hands-on process and equipment operation, field observations, troubleshooting, sampling, process equipment inspections, and maintaining safe, high-quality, and stable production.
Production equipment is mainly operated through local operating panels, and the work is performed in the production area as part of the shift team.
As the plant operates 24/7/365, the position requires working in a rotating shift schedule, including nights, weekends, and public holidays.
Key Responsibilities
Operate production equipment and process stages in the field using local operating panels.
Perform field rounds and monitor and inspect process and equipment conditions.
Perform sampling, material handling, cleaning, and other practical production activities.
Identify process and equipment deviations and take appropriate first actions.
Participate in production start-ups, shutdowns, product changeovers, and troubleshooting.
Follow safety, quality, and operating procedures, including LOTO and permit-to-work practices.
Cooperate with Shift Supervisors, Production Process Engineers, Maintenance, and other support functions.
Participate in continuous improvement of safety, quality, process stability, and working methods.
What We Expect from You
Practical experience in the chemical industry or another relevant process industry.
Experience in field operations and operating industrial process and production equipment.
Experience in operating equipment through local operating panels is considered an advantage.
Ability to identify process and equipment deviations and participate in troubleshooting.
Good understanding of process safety and safe working practices.
Safety- and quality-oriented, responsible, and hands-on approach to work.
Willingness to work shifts and perform hands-on work in the production area.
Good communication and teamwork skills in an international industrial environment.
A valid right to work in Finland is required.
Previous experience in a Finnish industrial environment is considered an advantage.
Experience Level
Skilled Production Operator – 2–5 Years of Relevant Experience
You have 2–5 years of practical experience in production and process equipment operation, preferably in the chemical industry or another relevant process industry.
After site-specific training, you are able to independently operate the equipment within your assigned process area. You understand the basic operation of the process and equipment, recognize typical process and equipment deviations, and can take appropriate first actions safely.
Experienced Production Operator – More Than 5 Years of Relevant Experience
You have more than 5 years of practical experience in production and process equipment operation, preferably in the chemical industry or another relevant process industry.
You have strong hands-on experience in field operations and process equipment. You can independently identify abnormal process and equipment conditions, participate actively in troubleshooting, and support less experienced operators in practical field operations.
Preferred Industrial Background
We particularly value hands-on operating experience from the chemical industry and other process industries involving powder or solid material handling and similar types of process equipment.
Relevant experience may include:
Chemical and petrochemical industry
Battery materials
Minerals and materials processing
Metals and metal compounds processing
Relevant process operations in the pulp and paper industry
Experience with material feeding and dosing, mixing, thermal processing, milling, screening, pneumatic or mechanical material conveying, and packaging processes is particularly relevant.
Previous experience in a highly automated process environment combined with hands-on field operations is considered an advantage.
