Job Description

Who we are

Since 1923, Higley Industries has been at the forefront of the cleaning supply industry, dedicated to producing high-quality products for Industrial, Janitorial, Retail, and Private Label markets. As a company open to the public, we are committed not only to innovation and customer satisfaction but also to environmental stewardship. We strive to minimize our environmental footprint by implementing sustainable practices in our manufacturing processes and product development. Our goal is to lead the industry towards a more sustainable future, ensuring that we meet today’s needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs.

Position Overview

Higley Industries is seeking an experienced Lead Chemical Mixer to independently manage batch production in a regulated chemical manufacturing environment. This role is not entry-level and is not suitable for candidates without direct chemical mixing experience.

The successful candidate will be responsible for accurately, safely, and efficiently executing batch formulations. Precision is critical — errors in this role result in material loss, downtime, and safety risk. Experience is required.

Key Responsibilities

  • Independently prepare and execute chemical batch mixes according to approved formulas and SOPs
  • Accurately measure, stage, and add raw materials in the correct sequence
  • Verify batch documentation before, during, and after production
  • Operate and monitor mixing equipment, pumps, and transfer systems
  • Identify and correct process deviations before material loss occurs
  • Maintain cleanliness, organization, and safety standards in the mixing area
  • Communicate issues clearly and immediately to QA and Operations
  • Train or guide less-experienced team members as required

Required Experience & Qualifications (Non-Negotiable)

Applicants must meet the following to be considered:

  • 3+ years of hands-on chemical mixing experience in manufacturing
  • Direct experience working with liquid chemical formulations
  • Proven ability to follow batch sheets and SOPs without supervision
  • Experience working in a regulated environment (chemical, food, pharmaceutical, coatings, agriculture, etc.)
  • Strong understanding of chemical safety, material handling, and contamination control
  • Demonstrated track record of accuracy, attention to detail, and accountability

Strongly Preferred

  • Experience as a Lead Mixer or Senior Mixer
  • Familiarity with ISO, FDA, or cGMP-regulated environments
  • Experience in identifying and preventing batch errors
  • Forklift or industrial equipment experience

Why you’ll love working here

Competitive Pay: Starting hourly range of $22.00-$34.00, depending on experience.

Health Benefits: Comprehensive health insurance to keep you and your family covered.

Generous Time Off :

- Accrue 10 days of vacation in your first year.

- The company shuts down for statutory holidays.

Purpose-Driven Work: Be part of a team that is dedicated to creating environmentally responsible cleaning solutions.

Inclusive Culture: We foster a collaborative, inclusive, and innovative workplace where your ideas matter.
