Gorbel’s mission is simple: We improve people’s lives. That mission guides everything we do, from the products and service we provide to our outside customers to the work environment we foster for our employees. We are a manufacturer of material handling and fall protection products for the production and warehouse/distribution sectors. We’re on the cutting edge of manufacturing and distribution; a thriving, growing company that is constantly seeking out new ways to innovate and elevate our products and our processes – and we’re looking for people like you to join us in that mission. We hire for positions in the US and Canada. We operate in Canada as Engineered Lifting Systems and Equipment (ELS)/DBA Gorbel® Canada, and subsequent communication related to Canadian positions may show the ELS name. You may be contacted by phone by recruitment personnel based in either Canada or New York. The Gorbel team is always growing - come be part of it!
We act with integrity and optimism, which are the driving forces behind our vibrant community.
Integrity is everything – it’s the heart of who we are and a behavior that drives our culture. To act with integrity means to be fair and honest at all times. Integrity appears in the workplace in many ways, like how we respect each other and our business partners. Or in those moments when we choose to do the right thing or take the extra minute even though no one would know otherwise. Only through integrity can we build the trust of our employees, customers, and our partners.
Our Gorbel® workplace culture is also built on optimism. We know that a positive outlook changes everything. Optimism creates an environment where any employee can have a smooth workday then go home to their family with energy. When we have enough energy for our family, we also have enough energy for our community. Gorbel® recognizes its impact on our community and values what brings us together.
We invest in our future by being open to new things and willing to learn.
Since 1977, Gorbel® has been growing and changing. We never stop looking for new industries, markets, product ideas, and technologies. Seeking out new things can sometimes be risky and even uncomfortable, but it’s an integral part of our survival. Inevitably, mistakes are made – but mistakes are seen as learning opportunities in our workplace.
Learning drives growth, so we enable our people to learn from and teach others. We also value everyone’s knowledge, regardless of rank or title. How knowledge is recognized and passed on at Gorbel® is very important to us because a dynamic learning environment leads to discoveries. A workplace driven by discovery – discoveries about our jobs, our business, our customers, the competitive industry we operate in, and the world – that’s what Gorbel® strives for. And it’s what growth is made of.
We work together to Improve People’s Lives.
While each and every one of our employees is capable of huge achievements, we believe those achievements are magnified by teamwork. The best teams have diversity of experience and opinions. Gorbel® is committed to fostering a workplace where we can express and explore these differences with respect. Otherwise, we can’t achieve the goal that has brought us together in the first place – to Improve People Live’s.
We proudly work together to design and build cranes that prevent pain and injury in the backs and knees and arms of those who use them. You may wonder how serious we are about Improving People’s Lives? The answer is simple. If a product doesn’t help people, we won’t make it. No matter the profitability. We know this is unusual, but it’s also the true spirit of Gorbel® and what unifies us. If this resonates with you like it does with us, then we encourage you to join our team.
"I believe what makes Gorbel different from other companies is the higher level of pride and commitment that’s displayed from every employee. When others just say, ‘It’s good enough’, we say, ‘Let’s make it better!’"
