CAREERS AT GENEST
As a small family-owned company, hiring and keeping good people is crucial to our business’s success. When you come to work at Genest, we want you to enjoy being part of our team, and we want to create an environment where you can do your best work.
Our holiday parties and summer BBQs are a lot of fun (if we do say so ourselves), but we know that’s not what keeps our employees coming into work for the rest of the year. You spend a third of your life at work. It should be a place where you feel happy, motivated, and supported. We want you to look forward to coming in to work with us every day, and we think the number of folks who have been on our team for 15, 20, or 30+ years – including second- and third-generation Genest employees – means we must be doing something right.
We offer on-the-job training and opportunities for advancement so that you can continue to develop your career. Many employees who started with us as yard associates and forklift drivers have worked their way up to supervisory roles or sales positions. At Genest, we value your individual skills, experience, and contributions whether you’re operating our machinery or selling our products. Your work and dedication is acknowledged and appreciated.

- Full Medical package: Health, Dental, Vision
- Paid Life Insurance
- Paid Short Term & Long Term Disability
- Generous Paid Time Off
