Production Operator (with housing)

Company Activities

Our client is more than just a packaging glass producer. They are a family business with an international outlook, driven by technology, sustainability, and people.

In our client’s IS Department (Glass Forming Department, Hot End), molten glass arrives from the glass furnace, where it is cut into gobs and transported via the feeder to the production line. The glass gob then drops into a mould, where it is blown into shape and coated with a hot-end coating. Within this department, you will play a key role in operating, monitoring, and adjusting the process while ensuring quality and efficiency.
