Job Description
The European market leader in solid wood products and innovative construction solutions
About Our Company
In 1957, Franz Binder, sr. founded the independent family business binderholz as a small “one-gate sawmill” in Fügen in Zillertal of Tyrol. What began sixty years ago in the timber trade has now evolved beyond the sawmill to encompass a much more comprehensive wood processing operation. New standards are continuously being implemented in engineering, product innovation, and architectural design. The third generation of the Binder family retains overall management of the company and maintains their predecessors’ original inspiration for the product.
The binderholz group has become one of the biggest solid timber producing companies in Europe. We are centrally oriented on the concept of sustainability in both the treatment and processing of wood, and with regard to our present and future employees.
A passion for wood and commitment to the business are the foundation of Binder's philosophy. This ethos ensures that the name of binderholz shall forever symbolize the highest quality wood. Franz Binder senior turned his passion for wood into a profession during the 1950s, a passion that is now experienced by the third generation of the Binder family.
In 2020, we acquired our new US production sites, Binderholz Enfield LLC and Binderholz Live Oak LLC in Florida, developing our US organization and market presence step by step. We have been importing various mass timber products to the US and Canada for years, but with our own US sales entity in Atlanta, GA, and our new production sites in Enfield, NC and Live Oak, FL, we are addressing the growing demand for saw timber and massive wood products through regionally sourced and produced binderholz products in America.
Come join our growing team at Binderholz Enfield as our Log Yard Heavy Equipment Operator! We offer competitive wages along with our full benefits package.
We look forward to considering you as part of our team at Binderholz.
