Maintenance Technician

At SUPERIOR, we act like we own the company because we do. We are a 100% employee-owned organization that thrives on a culture of cooperation, commitment, and stewardship. We invest in our people and processes so that we can best serve our customers, and grow responsibly. We shy away from "this is the way we've always done it," and gravitate towards "this makes a lot of sense." We are looking for people that want to feel invested in making a difference that ultimately affects the company's bottom line, and yours as well. Oh, and by the way, we distribute solvents, chemicals, and composites. We also take customer's hazardous waste, and we repurpose it. And we're really good at all of the above because we've been doing it successfully since 1932.
