We strongly believe in "Safety First, Quality Always" for our employees, products, and customers. If this is something you feel passionate about, ensuring all employees uphold our quality and food safety procedures and policies, this may be the next great opportunity for you!

This role also requires attention to detail while completing daily tasks such as scheduling, reporting, and conducting regular visual line checks to ensure proper dating, labeling, and packaging.

* Bachelor's Degree or at least 5 years equivalent experience in a food, beverage or pharma manufacturing environment.
* Are you able to work Monday - Friday and average between 40 to 50 hours per week?
* Is your passion leading team members to achieve production targets in a safe and efficient manner? If you have at least 5 years leading a production team, then we need you!
