Part of the Team: Jason Savin

After spending time flipping houses with his dad, Jason Savin knew what he wanted to do when he graduated high school—work with his hands. His girlfriend’s father works for Altec, and based on his glowing reviews, Savin decided to apply for a job.

“He always was talking about how he loves his job and he gets to work with his hands every day, and it’s just an awesome place to work,” Savin said.

He got the job and quickly found that Altec’s culture was the perfect fit.

Pride in His Work

Savin works at Altec’s Indianapolis Operations Center prepping trucks to be painted. He takes great pride in his work knowing that each and every Altec associate plays a key part in providing the high-quality equipment Altec is known for.

“Currently, I wash the trucks before the paint department gets them, so I’m the first line of defense against any dirt, muck, or anything like that,” he said. “I know that everything I do affects the person directly after me, which in return affects our customer.”

Part of the Team

One of Altec’s core values is teamwork, which Savin has experienced firsthand since he started his job. His colleagues immediately welcomed him with open arms and encourage him to grow and learn more every day. Those people, he said, are his favorite part of the job.

“I’ve made so many connections and bonds with the people here,” Savin said. “I’m only 18 and everyone here is older than me, but they’re still so welcoming. Everyone is trying to give me a helping hand and give me more knowledge.”

For other high school students planning their next step after school, Savin’s message is simple—especially for those considering a career with Altec.

“I know this is going to be a big step for you, but everything about this place is here for you,” he said. “They’re here for you 100 percent.”
