Georgia Manufacturing Job Board Launches

Staff Report From Georgia CEO

Monday, June 5th, 2017

The Georgia Manufacturing Alliance is pleased to announce the creation of an online Job Board that will assist manufacturers in finding potential employees that have an interest in careers in the manufacturing community. The open positions will span all categories from engineering, production, warehousing, and logistics to needs in HR, finance, and executive level management.  This resource can be found online at (GaManufacturingJobs.com, GeorgiaManufacturingJobs.com, GaMfgJobs.com).

The GaManufacturingJobs.com website was pre-launched on May 15th to a select group of GMA members who have already loaded a variety of open positions. This base of job opportunities is expected to expand rapidly as the promotion of the site spreads across the manufacturing community. It will be promoted throughout Georgia via press releases, advertising, and social media channels.

“As we travel around the state touring manufacturing facilities, we hear a recurring concern in finding qualified candidates to fill the open positions they have,” said Jason Moss, CEO of the Georgia Manufacturing Alliance. “Manufacturers are experiencing a shortage of candidates who are ready, willing and able to work in the manufacturing industry.”

The GaManufacturingJobs.com website is less than half the price of other job boards and is specifically designed to help manufacturers attract the top talent across the state. Manufacturers can post a standard 30-day job listing for $97 and Georgia Manufacturing Alliance members receive a 50% discount. Job seekers can post their resumes publicly for all employers to see or they can store their resume in a private mode to be sent only when applying for a specific job.

“The GaManufacturingJobs.com website will be a huge help to the manufacturers across the state,” said Kevin Hyde, Director of Manufacturing at MTI Baths in Sugar Hill, GA. “We have over 250 employees on site and when we found out the Georgia Manufacturing Job Board was available, we immediately posted job openings that we need to fill immediately.”
