Shop Handler

**Mahler Industries**

We have been a leading manufacturer of high-precision components in BC and internationally for over 40 years. No two days will be the same given our focus on low volume high complexity work for a variety of industries including deep sea submergence, aerospace, alternative energy, medical, and manufacturing OEMs. Our 20,000-square-foot facility is located in Coquitlam BC at 1324 Ketch Court and is equipped with 18 CNC machines including a mix of vertical and horizontal mills, lathes, 5-axis, and 7 live tooling machines, and a manual machine room. We are ISO 9001 certified and operate a fleet of well-maintained Mazak and Haas machines that support online (conversational Mazatrol) and offline programming.

**Our Culture**

We are a humble and hardworking group of 30 individuals that make for a great team. Our culture is focused on providing top-quality solutions for our customers while supporting a continuous learning and problem-solving environment for our staff. We take a collaborative approach to problem-solving on the floor and in the office and being kind is more important than being right. This is not an environment where operators stay as operators, we aim to provide the training resources to advance your skillset to the point where you can take complex drawings to finished components over time. We have a tight-knit team where we all know each other, no job is below any one person, and we hope to add hardworking, kind, and trustworthy people to our culture.

**Our Differentiators**

There are several reasons the experience at Mahler will stand out relative to other employers. The most important one is progression. We have a history of taking new joiners with limited to no experience and developing them through internal training and trade sponsorships to the point of becoming certified machinists. We pride ourselves on having a learning-focused culture where we support one another, and we are striving to be one of the best places to work in manufacturing in BC.
