Working Shop Foreman – Industrial Mechanic

Waterbury, CT $45–$50/hr DOE | Full-Time | Long-Term Opportunity

Skilled Trades Partners is seeking an experienced Working Shop Foreman / Industrial Mechanic for a full-time opportunity with an established, family-owned industrial service company in Waterbury, CT.

This is a hands-on leadership position for someone who knows how to troubleshoot, repair, and rebuild industrial rotating equipment while helping oversee the day-to-day operation of a busy repair shop. This is not a desk-only foreman role — we’re looking for someone who can lead by example and work alongside the team.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead and work alongside shop mechanics and technicians
  • Disassemble, inspect, troubleshoot, and rebuild industrial electric motors
  • Repair pumps, gearboxes, and other rotating equipment
  • Diagnose mechanical and electrical failures
  • Perform precision fits, alignments, and equipment repairs
  • Operate manual machining equipment, including a lathe
  • Assist with balancing, testing, and complex troubleshooting
  • Help coordinate shop workflow and maintain high standards for quality and safety

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of industrial mechanical, motor repair, millwright, or similar experience preferred
  • Strong hands-on experience repairing electric motors, pumps, gearboxes, or rotating equipment
  • Manual lathe experience required
  • Strong mechanical troubleshooting skills
  • Experience leading or mentoring other mechanics/technicians
  • Comfortable working with heavy industrial equipment
  • Welding, fabrication, machining, or motor rewinding experience is a plus
  • No electrical license required

What’s Offered

  • Competitive pay around $45–$50/hr DOE
  • Full-time, long-term opportunity
  • PTO and paid holidays
  • 401(k)
  • Profit sharing
  • Bonus opportunities
  • Tuition reimbursement
  • Stable work with an established industrial customer base
  • Opportunity to join a smaller, family-run company where your experience will have a direct impact

If you’re an experienced industrial mechanic who enjoys solving difficult problems, working on a variety of equipment, and leading from the shop floor, we’d like to speak with you.

Apply today for immediate consideration!

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
