Sawmill Foreman

Berdoll Sawmill

Cedar Creek, TX

Position Description

Berdoll Sawmill is a small, specialty hardwood sawmill looking for a Sawmill Foreman. As the mill owner, I am looking to step back from day to day operations and looking for a self-driven individual with high ethical standards and an appreciation for high quality work to step into that role. In this role, a good candidate will recognize tasks around the mill that need to be completed and prioritize those tasks. The foreman will also lead 2-5 others and assist them in prioritizing their work on a day to day basis. Daily tasks include creating the work plan for the day, ensuring logs are being sawn in the most efficient manner, monitoring of kilns, and surfacing of lumber/slabs. I am looking for a “go to person” that can make the “it depends” decisions that come with the nature of working with wood. Keeping the work area neat, clean and organized is important and I’m looking for someone that takes the same pride in their work area.

Required Skills & Experience

Significant experience in the sawmill/lumber/furniture industry is preferred, but lack of experience can be overcome if the candidate has an intense desire to learn and a good work ethic. Being mechanically inclined, able to make basic repairs on machinery, and oversee the PM of the machinery are required skills. I’m looking for someone that works with the same level of intensity whether I’m around or not and can encourage others to do the same.

Salary & Benefits

Pay will be based on the level of responsibility you assume and the profitability you help generate for the mill.
