Guardian Industries

Independence, integrity and possibility

Guardian is unlike any company you've ever worked for and you may find that difference right for you. Whether you're interested in a position in management, manufacturing, operations, science & technology, sales & marketing, engineering or administration, Guardian will open your mind to a new way of thinking about how to obtain that productive, rewarding career you desire.

Toss aside those large-company stereotypes where bureaucracy stifles ideas and innovation, where the corporate ladder is filled with unnecessary hierarchical layers, and where creativity, motivation and enthusiasm are buried in red tape.

Instead, embrace a level of independence, integrity and possibility that's unheard of in the corporate world.  Join an international network of support and collaboration. Begin a new career driven and determined by you.  Hear from some of our talented employees who have flourished by embracing the Guardian Way.

While that's all well and good, we're certain you also want to know some of the basics like our Compensation Philosophy or about the Comprehensive Benefits package we offer.  And, you'll be happy to know, we take our Corporate Responsibility very seriously.

The Guardian Way works

More than 18,000 employees across 25 countries on five continents subscribe to our way of success because it works.

The Guardian Way...

...will never hold you back. There are no rigid structures here, no pre-established career paths. We'll provide you with the right tools and resources to succeed. All you have to do in return is show us you're self-motivated, ambitious, honest and ethical.

...decentralizes authority and removes unnecessary layers. An over-centralized, corporate structure and too many layers can slow response time. At Guardian, quick decision-making at the local level is standard, with ideas going from the planning state to implementation far more quickly. This empowers work teams to make a more immediate impact, and allows you to achieve more in your career.

...enhances the entrepreneur. The entrepreneurial spirit of Guardian encourages employees to open their minds to new and authentic ideas they might not have considered before. Only through free-thinking and the capacity to take calculated risks are the greatest innovations born.

...recognizes the importance of mentors in career development. Guardian employs some of the most brilliant, innovative and diverse minds in their fields. This creates opportunities to learn and work side-by-side with some very skilled, very knowledgeable mentors. If your desire is equal to your capacity to grow, success can be yours at Guardian.

...is globally responsible. You can feel good about working for a company that does not take its position as a global industry-leader lightly. Through the products we manufacture and the processes we employ at our manufacturing plants, Guardian is committed to saving energy and conserving our planet's most precious natural resources.

Benefits that make a real-world difference

When you join the Guardian team, you become part of a company that is committed to its employees. Part of that commitment is providing you with a comprehensive benefits package that is specifically designed to make a real difference in your life. 

We recognize that what an employee needs in Corsicana, Texas may differ from what an employee needs in Valencia, Spain or Buenos Aires, Argentina. That's why each Guardian facility, in large part, ultimately chooses the best benefits package for its local employee base. You'll find that our benefits compare favorably with packages offered by other employers in your area.

Guardian also provides its employees with access to a unique wellness program called HealthGuard. Launched in 1983, HealthGuard is designed to encourage healthy living for our employees. Through educational materials and programs focused on nutrition and exercise, identifying health risks and disease prevention, HealthGuard gives our people the tools they need to make better choices and lead healthier, more productive lives.

More than just a competitive wage or salary

Our philosophy is simple...we compensate the person, not the position.  That said, we expect you to bring value to the company and we expect to see the results in your performance.

In fact, those who find the greatest success at Guardian embody the entrepreneurial spirit of this company.  They are the free-thinkers, the ones who aren’t afraid to take calculated risks.  If you're willing to face a challenge head on, turn innovative ideas into results and learn from your mistakes, you've got what we want.
