Metalsa Structural Products, Inc., a global sustainable manufacturer of chassis structures for light and commercial vehicles, plans to expand its Elizabethtown plant to add 150 full-time jobs.

The new jobs will support the company’s Strategic Major and Start-Up OEM Customers’ new programs on Internal Combustion, Hybrid and Battery Electric Vehicles for Pick-up trucks and Sport Utilities.

All positions are full-time, permanent openings for entry-level production technician. No experience in the automotive industry is required as Metalsa is committed to training employees for their positions.

Compensation begins at $17 per hour and increases up to $22.96 with raises at regular intervals and cost of living increases each September. Second and third shift employees earn an additional shift differential.

In addition to an extremely competitive benefits package, Metalsa employees enjoy full union benefits after 90 days as well as bonuses for new hires, referring applicants, perfect attendance, and profit-sharing.

Employees have a full compensation and benefits package including medical, dental, vision, short- and long-term disability coverage, flexible spending accounts, and life and AD&D coverage.

“When you start are Metalsa, you provide yourself the opportunity to build your career, not just start a job,” said Linda Aubrey, Human Development at Metalsa. “At Metalsa, our benefits and earnings opportunities allow employees to provide for and support their families. Additionally, the opportunities for advancement are endless—either into skilled trades through our apprenticeship or into management.”

Metalsa is also hiring for skilled trades positions including maintenance and tooling. There are many salaried positions in operations, quality, engineering and more available.

The Elizabethtown location is home to 1,800-plus full-time collaborators. Metalsa worldwide includes 10,000-plus collaborators.

Hiring is currently underway. Interested applicants may apply online at www.metalsa.com/careers, by emailing etown.hiring@metalsa.com, or by attending the job fair on August 7 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Metalsa (750 North Black Branch Road).
