ABOUT THE ROLE

Amrize, a leading supplier of quality, construction building materials in the United States, has immediate openings for a Utility Operator to support operations at the several Asphalt plants througout our company. Your primary home plant will be located in Bladensburg, MD. This position will be responsible for operating and configuring a Front End Loader and other equipment as assigned. Also ensure that the machine works at its full capacity, oversee its maintenance, and perform timely quality checks.

WHAT YOU'LL ACCOMPLISH

  • Load Aggregate and Recycled Asphalt (RAP) into Cold Feed Bins
  • Operate the front-end loader to load raw materials (sand, stone, RAP, and other aggregates) into the cold feed bins that supply the asphalt plant.
  • Maintain consistent feed levels to support continuous and efficient asphalt production.
  • Maintain Stockpiles and Material Quality : Build and manage clean, well-organized stockpiles of aggregates and RAP to prevent cross-contamination.
  • Ensure proper blending of materials according to the plant operator's mix specifications.
  • Support Asphalt Production Process : Work closely with the plant operator to keep materials flowing to the dryer drum and mixing system.
  • Monitor material levels in bins, conveyors, and surge silos to prevent downtime or overloading.
  • Equipment Inspection and Routine Maintenance : Perform daily pre- and post-operation inspections (fluids, tires, hydraulics, bucket, lights).
  • Clean and grease equipment regularly; report mechanical issues immediately to maintenance.
  • Load trucks with finished asphalt mix or other materials safely and accurately when needed.
  • Move raw materials between plant areas (RAP piles, stockpiles, recycle bins, etc.) as directed.
  • Site Safety and Environmental Compliance : Follow MSHA / OSHA and company safety protocols, including PPE, communication signals, and safe equipment operation.
  • Prevent spills, track-out, and dust emissions; help maintain a clean and environmentally compliant worksite.
  • General Plant Housekeeping and Support : Assist with cleanup around the plant, including spillage removal, sweeping, and clearing build-up near bins or conveyors.
  • Support other plant and yard duties as needed to ensure smooth and safe operations.
  • Demonstrate a commitment to communicating, improving and adhering to health, safety and environmental policies in all work environments and areas. Promote a culture of safety and exhibit these behaviors.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • Education : High school diploma or equivalent
  • Required Work Experience : 1-2 years Front End Loader Experience
  • Travel Requirments : 50 percent of the time or as neeed
  • Proven Asphalt Plant Experience : Has hands-on experience working in an asphalt production environment, not just general construction or aggregate yards.
  • Understands how loader work affects mix quality, feed consistency, and plant efficiency.
  • Strong Equipment Operation Skills : Skilled in operating front-end loaders with precision - smooth bucket control, accurate material placement, and safe maneuvering around tight spaces and hot-mix areas.
  • Can handle various materials (aggregates, RAP, millings, sand) efficiently.
  • Safety Awareness and Compliance : Demonstrates strong commitment to MSHA / OSHA safety practices, PPE use, and safe work habits.
  • Aware of blind spots, traffic flow, and the hazards of working near hot materials and plant equipment.
  • Material Handling Knowledge : Understands proper stockpile management, preventing contamination and maintaining correct material separation.
  • Knows how to feed cold bins consistently and monitor material flow to support plant production targets.
  • Equipment Care and Maintenance : Performs daily inspections and basic preventive maintenance (checking fluids, tires, hydraulic lines).
  • Reports issues promptly and keeps equipment clean and in good working order.
  • Communication and Teamwork : Works well with plant operators, scale personnel, and truck drivers.
  • Communicates clearly about material levels, equipment issues, and plant needs to prevent downtime.
  • Reliability and Work Ethic : Dependable attendance, punctuality, and willingness to work in varying weather and long shifts when production demands.
  • Takes pride in keeping the yard organized, safe, and running smoothly.
  • Additional Requirements :

  • Successful candidates must adhere to all safety protocols and proper use of Amrize approved Personal Protection Equipment ("PPE"), including but not limited to respirators. Employees that are required to wear respirators must be clean shaven where the respirator seal meets the face in order to pass the qualitative and quantitative fit tests
  • WHAT WE OFFER

  • Competitive salary
  • Retirement Savings : Choose from 401(k) pre-tax and / or Roth after-tax savings
  • Medical, Dental, Disability and Life Insurance
  • Holistic Health & Well-being programs
  • Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) & Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) for health and dependent care
