The local market in Neenah, WI

Neenah, WI currently has 3 other active welding openings besides this one, spread across 3 employers. None of them were added in the last week, so this is a slower-moving market.

Browse every welding job in Neenah, or widen the search to Wisconsin.

The most active employers in Wisconsin at the moment, by number of open welding reqs, are QPS Employment Group (12), Staff on Site (9), and API Heat Transfer (6).

What you'll be running

This posting calls for MIG. MIG (GMAW) feeds a continuous wire electrode through a shielding-gas nozzle. It lays down metal fast and is forgiving on clean material, which is why it dominates production and light fabrication work.
