About Us

At Blythe Dale Sand & Gravel, we are a locally operated aggregates company, specializing in sand, gravel, and related materials for construction and infrastructure projects.

We operate a fleet of heavy equipment and trucks and are committed to safety, reliability, and quality service.

About the Role

We are seeking a reliable, self-motivated Loader / Plant Operator to join our team at our Cayuga pit. This site is a limestone quarry where Blythe Dale drills, crushes, sizes, and washes material in-house.

The successful candidate will primarily support plant operations, including operating a wheel loader, completing daily safety checks, monitoring production, and assisting with plant start-up and shutdown.

The role is best suited for someone who enjoys working independently, has a strong safety mindset, and is comfortable operating equipment in an active quarry environment. Experience in the aggregate industry, particularly with screening, loader operation, or plant equipment, is considered a strong asset; however, Blythe Dale is willing to provide site-specific training to the right individual.

Key Responsibilities

Operate a wheel loader to feed the plant, move material, and support stockpiling.
Operate and monitor plant equipment, including the screening plant, belt conveyors, generator, and related site equipment.
Complete daily pre-checks on the plant and equipment.
Record safety checks and required documentation using Site Docs.
Start the generator or water pump and complete plant start-up procedures.
Complete a walk-around of the plant and work area to ensure equipment and site conditions are safe and ready for operation.
Monitor the plant during operation; watching for holes in screens, belt issues, blockages, or other production concerns.
Feed the plant and monitor material flow through stackers.
Complete production reporting, including tasks performed and tonnages produced.
Complete end-of-day shutdown procedures.
Perform basic servicing tasks; greasing, belt checks, basic adjustments, and cleaning screens.
Support other areas of the Cayuga site when required.
Interact professionally with customers, truckers, and other site visitors when loading or supporting site activity.

Skills & Qualifications

3-5 years’ experience of equipment operating in construction or aggregates (preferred; willing to train the right candidate).
Valid Ontario driver’s license with an insurable driving abstract.
High school diploma or equivalent.
Ability to work autonomously with limited direct supervision.
Self-starter with strong motivation, dependability, and accountability.
Strong commitment to safety, completing documentation, and following site procedures.
Ability to complete pre-checks, safety records, production reports, and basic equipment checks.
Mechanical aptitude and ability to identify basic plant or equipment issues.
Positive attitude, strong work ethic, and willingness to improve.

Preferred

Previous aggregate industry experience.
Experience running a loader, screening plant, wash plant, or similar plant equipment.
Experience with excavators, rock trucks, skid-steers, or crushing plants.

Working Conditions

Outdoor work in varying weather conditions.
Exposure to noise and dust.
Active limestone quarry environment with plant equipment, conveyors, loaders, trucks, and crushing activity.
Work is performed on a geographically spread-out site with a small team, typically four (4) employees onsite, with additional crews present as needed.
Role requires a high level of independence.
Standard hours are Monday to Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.; Saturdays are optional.

Why Join Us?

At Blythe Dale, team fit matters as much as technical skill. We’re a tight-knit, purpose-driven group that values collaboration, curiosity, and community. We are dedicated to building strong communities from the ground up to support infrastructure that keeps Southwestern Ontario connected, safe, and thriving.

Here’s what you can expect when you join us:

Competitive compensation with bi-weekly pay
Comprehensive full benefits with 100% employer-paid premiums
RRSP deferred/profit sharing program after 1 year of service
Vehicle and cell phone allowance
Supportive, family-oriented culture with room for growth
