Job description

The Baillie Group is a leader in the hardwood lumber industry with operations across North America. Since 1923, we have built our reputation on quality, service, and innovation.

  • Inspect logs for foreign materials (e.g., metal, embedded objects) and take corrective action as needed.
  • Follow proper safety practices when operating chainsaws and handling logs.
  • Assist with log yard organization, movement, and staging as directed.
  • Maintain tools and equipment in safe, working condition.
  • Support overall sawmill operations as needed.

Benefits:

  • Minimum - Anticipated Maximum Salary:$15-$16
  • Full Time Hours + OT available 
  • Comprehensive benefits package (health, dental, vision, retirement).
  • Opportunity to gain valuable experience in the lumber industry.

The advertised pay range represents what Baillie Lumber Co. believes and anticipates paying for this position. It is not typical for an individual to be compensated at the top of the range for a position as candidates must possess experience and qualifications that far exceed the requirements.
