At Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions, we don't just make asphalt products-we help build and maintain the roads that connect communities across the country. We're looking for a Facility Operator who enjoys hands-on work, solving problems, and being part of a team that takes pride in producing high-quality products safely and efficiently.

If you're someone who prefers working outdoors, enjoys learning new skills, and wants a career with a company that values its people, we'd love to hear from you.

Why Join Ergon?

Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions is a family-owned company with operations across the United States and Mexico. While we've grown over the years, we've never lost our small-company culture. We believe in building strong relationships, investing in our employees, and creating opportunities for professional growth.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive pay
  • Excellent benefits package
  • Stable, long-term career opportunities
  • Ongoing training and development
  • Team-oriented work environment
  • Family-owned company culture

As a Facility Operator, you'll work alongside a close-knit team to produce and distribute asphalt products used in paving and road maintenance projects. This is a hands-on position that involves operating equipment, monitoring product quality, loading and unloading materials, and helping maintain a safe and efficient facility.

This is not an office job. If you enjoy working outdoors, staying active, and tackling new challenges every day, this could be a great fit.

What You'll Do

  • Assist with product testing and quality control in the lab
  • Collect and evaluate product samples
  • Enter production and quality data into reporting systems
  • Load and unload trucks and railcars
  • Perform basic maintenance on pumps, mixers, racks, and other equipment
  • Participate in daily safety, production, and quality meetings
  • Follow environmental, health, and safety procedures
  • Maintain facility cleanliness and organization
  • Complete required training and certifications
  • Wear required personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • Communicate effectively with coworkers, management, transportation partners, and customers

What We're Looking For

  • High school diploma or equivalent
  • Strong problem-solving and organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team
  • Ability to read and follow written instructions
  • Basic math skills
  • Willingness to learn new technology and computer systems
  • Valid driver's license
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel is a plus

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to lift up to 50 pounds with assistance
  • Ability to bend, climb ladders, tanks, and industrial structures
  • Comfortable working outdoors year-round in varying weather conditions
  • Ability to work scheduled shifts, including weekdays and weekends as needed

Ready to Build Your Future?

If you're looking for a rewarding career with a company that values hard work, teamwork, and continuous improvement, we'd like to meet you.

Please submit your resume for consideration.

No walk-ins or phone calls, please. Qualified applicants will be contacted directly to schedule interviews.

About the Company

E

Ergon Inc

Headquartered in Jackson, Mississippi, Ergon, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries are built on a foundation of petroleum-related enterprises begun in 1954 by its Chairman, Leslie B. Lampton. Starting as a petroleum retailer with only two employees, Ergon has evolved into a network of market-leading companies employing over 2,300 people. Ergon operates as a sophisticated crude oil processor, transporter and marketer of refined products. It also functions as a producer and marketer of specialty asphalt products, as well as an oil and gas explorer and real estate developer. In addition, Ergon manufactures state-of-the-art road maintenance products and equipment.

The Company’s roots are in the petroleum industry service areas, including trucking and propane distribution, marine transportation and petroleum marketing services. Through acquisitions and from merging other company operations into a base of entities that would become Ergon subsidiaries, including ventures in refining, terminaling, asphalt marketing, mid-river operations, exploration, maintenance support and real estate, we have moved forward to become a well-diversified portfolio of companies.
