Swagelok Company, a solutions provider of fluid system products, assemblies, and related services, is marking its 75th year in business by expanding its workforce on Cleveland’s west side through the addition of positions in its existing Strongsville facility and the purchase of an existing 135,000-square-foot building in Valley City, Ohio.
Swagelok’s new facility, located at 5370 Wegman Drive in Valley City, Ohio, will become the company’s second location on Cleveland’s west side and its twenty-first facility in Northeast Ohio.
Ward Dumm, Swagelok senior vice president of operations, said: “Over the past several years, Swagelok has seen historically high levels of demand for the company’s high-quality products. We are proud to be a growing manufacturer.”
When operational in 2023, the Valley City facility plans to welcome more than 125 permanent employees working in support of fitting service and high-purity products.
Hannah Delis, Swagelok’s vice president of global human resources, said: “Swagelok is one of the largest employers of manufacturing talent in Northeast Ohio. With that position comes a responsibility to our employees that we take very seriously.
“Driven by our values, we provide health benefits on the first day of employment, a generous retirement package, an Employee Stock Ownership Program that allows all employees to share in the company’s success, tuition assistance, on-the-job training, and a welcoming, clean, safe, and modern workspace. We are excited to continue to add to our team.”
Between now and the end of 2023 Swagelok is hiring up to 75 associates at its Strongsville facility, many of which are new positions. The 154,000-square-foot facility has the capacity for 360 employees and manufactures more than 2,000 different products in support of the oil, gas, chemical, semiconductor, and clean energy industries. Swagelok’s commitment to the Strongsville community began with the purchase of the facility in 2007.
Thomas Perciak, mayor of the City of Strongsville, said: “Swagelok is a valued member of the Strongsville community. We appreciate their significant investment within our city, and we look forward to future collaboration as Swagelok continues to create new, high-quality jobs within Strongsville for area residents.”
Swagelok currently has employment opportunities throughout the company, including entry level and experienced manufacturing roles. Experienced machine operators on select shifts currently qualify for a signing bonus of up to $5,000. All employees receive benefits on their first day of employment. An open interview day will be held at the Strongsville City Commons from 9am to 1pm EDT on Saturday July 23, 2022.
