Description
We’re Hiring: General Labor – Weld Department (Cordova, IL)
Monday–Thursday | 4-Day Work Week | 10-Hour Shifts = 3-Day Weekends
At George Evans Corporation, we don’t just fill positions—we build a team of people who take pride in hard work, quality, and doing things the right way.
If you like staying busy, working with your hands, and being part of a team that actually depends on you… this is your kind of job.
What You’ll Be Doing
This is a hands-on role in our Weld Department where no two days feel exactly the same:
- Grind, prep, and finish metal parts to meet quality standards
- Inspect materials, in-process work, and finished products
- Read prints and follow procedures to get the job done right
- Operate hoists, cranes, and shop equipment safely
- Use measuring tools to make sure everything is within spec
- Help identify and prevent quality issues before they become problems
- Work side-by-side with a team focused on productivity and efficiency
(You’re not just “general labor”—you’re a key part of making sure our products leave here right the first time.)
What You Bring
- Manufacturing or hands-on experience preferred (2–3 years is a plus)
- Ability to read drawings and use basic math
- Attention to detail (this matters here)
- Reliability and strong attendance
- Willingness to learn, improve, and be part of a team
What the Job is Really Like
Let’s be real—this is physical work, and that’s part of what makes it rewarding:
- On your feet for 10-hour shifts
- Lifting, grinding, bending, moving
- Working with tools, machines, and metal all day
- Staying active and engaged (no desk sitting here)
If you like to move, build, and see what you accomplished at the end of the day—you’ll thrive here.

Best Interest of the Company
