  • Agile: you roll with the punches and don’t get overwhelmed easily, you adapt quickly to change and know how to deliver results in a fast-paced, autonomous environment
  • Decisive: You realize when making a decision is as important as the time it takes to make that decision
  • Problem-solver: you understand there is not a one-size-fits-all approach when problem-solving; you think outside the box and enjoy grinding away at issues to find a solution

At a minimum, you have...

  • Minimum 5 years' experience managing facilities maintenance/operations and reliability within the Food/Beverage/Perishables/Distribution industry

  • Generous PTO, including sabbatical, and parental leave of up to 16 weeks
  • Comprehensive health and wellness benefits with options at $0 monthly, effective first day of employment
  • Tuition reimbursement for continuing education (upon 2 years of service)
