Location: SSM MDF Stores
Position: Receiver for the Stores Area
Years with ARAUCO: 20
Rebecca McCaig has been a cornerstone of the ARAUCO team for two decades, currently serving as the Receiver for the Stores Area at SSM MDF. Her journey is one of resilience, growth, and dedication.
Rebecca’s role is vital to the smooth operation of the mill. She receives all parts and consumables, notifies planners and employees when their items arrive, and ensures everything is properly organized and stored in SAP. She also manages inventory, keeping track of all SAP parts with precision and care.
Twenty years ago, Rebecca was a cook and waitress raising three young children. She sought a stable job with benefits and vacation time to build a better life for her family. ARAUCO offered that opportunity—and she’s never looked back.
Rebecca thrives in a collaborative environment. She values the camaraderie among her coworkers and takes pride in helping during breakdowns or shutdowns. “It gives me a good feeling when I can help out—I feel valued,” she shares.
Rebecca recalls the early days when the Lamination Plant was just being completed. Starting as a press operator during the plant’s launch was both challenging and rewarding. “Some days you feel like pulling your hair out,” she laughs, “but it was a great learning experience.” Watching the mill evolve over the years has been an incredible journey.
Two years ago, Rebecca embraced change by stepping into her current role. The new challenge and the opportunity to work with different people have reinvigorated her passion for her work. She appreciates the ability to grow and move within the company.
Her advice to newcomers? “Work closely with the mechanical and electrical staff—you can learn a lot from them. Lean on your fellow stores staff; they have valuable contacts and knowledge. And most importantly, try to have some fun at work—you spend half your life here.”
Rebecca’s story is a testament to the power of perseverance, teamwork, and continuous growth. We’re proud to have her as part of the ARAUCO family!
