Every product has a journey before it reaches your hands—and on the manufacturing floor, every handoff matters. Conveyor systems keep materials moving from one stage to the next, helping people, equipment, and processes operate as one coordinated team. IKI designs the systems that make those handoffs seamless, turning thousands of moving parts into a winning operation.
For more than 50 years, we've helped manufacturers keep that momentum going. From a single conveyor to fully integrated material handling systems, we solve complex production challenges by creating smarter, more efficient ways to move products, connect operations, and keep businesses running at their best.
That same philosophy shapes how we work together. Great projects, like great conveyor systems, depend on seamless handoffs, clear communication, and people moving toward a shared goal. We take ownership, solve problems collaboratively, and keep our promises—because when everyone works in sync, our customers succeed along the way.
The ideal Project Manager is the quarterback we all depend upon. You create alignment across customers, engineering, operations, suppliers, and installers, turning many moving parts into one coordinated team. From project award through final acceptance, you create clarity, drive execution, and keep everything on track.
Please apply online and be sure to submit your resume along with a cover letter. In your cover letter, please include a brief description of a project you personally managed, including the approximate budget and the project’s outcome.
