Driven by integrity and united by the people-and-pet bond, we find strong purpose in the work we do and an even greater joy in those we get to work alongside. Together, we harness the expertise of our long-standing tradition of excellence to embrace possibility and continuously push to do what's never been done before in pet care.

For more than 30 years, our Management Development Associate program has developed our future leaders. As a Management Development Associate, you’ll embark on a personal and professional development experience a classroom can’t offer.

As an Engineering Management Development Associate at Nestlé Purina, we will coach you from the start, shaping your career trajectory for continuous learning and growth.

Following from there, you’ll experience leading and executing capital projects that impact the larger business.

Why choose a leadership developmental role with us? It's a full-time position that fast-tracks you to management on the manufacturing side of our business. You are the future leader! Plus, a change in location offers a fresh perspective. Relocate to our factory sites nationwide with a relocation assistance package, learn end-to-end processes, build your network, and launch your career.

  • Develop detailed project scopes that account for operational impact.
  • Craft solutions to problems in accordance with engineering standards.
  • Prepare specifications and bid scopes, as well as evaluate bids and awards for construction projects.
  • Oversee project start-ups and contractors.
  • Master plant process flows, utility flows, capacities, procedures, and practices.

Requirements

  • Must be open to relocation to one or more of our 24 production facilities across the U.S.
