Job Description

Join Us to Keep Sweeteners Flowing Safely

Help us deliver precisely measured, food-safe sugar to customers every day. In this hands-on role, you’ll blend quality, safety, and logistics to ensure dry and liquid sweeteners are packaged, documented, and shipped correctly—meeting regulatory, SQF, and GMP expectations.

What You’ll Tackle
  • Accurately fill and measure bulk sugar in trailers and railcars—meeting customer specs every time.
  • Load and verify liquid sugar co-products using trailers and railcars.
  • Run the sugar tote-filling system from setup through final checks.
  • Complete required quality checks; record results and resolve issues with your team lead.
  • Use computers daily for documentation and make minor programming adjustments at the machine when directed.
  • Cross-train to operate the powdered sugar mill and consistently meet quality targets.
  • Follow safe work practices and keep the area clean, compliant, and audit-ready.
  • Pitch in on additional duties as production needs change.
Must-Haves
  • Production/manufacturing experience preferred.
  • Basic computer proficiency; comfortable learning HMI/program changes.
  • Knowledge of—or ability to adopt and promote—SQF and GMP requirements; prior quality systems experience preferred.
  • Fork-truck training readiness and ability to maintain a valid fork truck license; willing to drive as needed.
  • Open to any shift; available for weekend overtime.
  • Physically able to climb stairs/ladders, use catwalks, bend, and lift.
  • High school diploma preferred.
How You’ll Succeed Here
  • Communicate early and often with teammates and the team leader.
  • Adapt quickly to a fast-paced, changing production schedule.
  • Own decisions and troubleshoot confidently.
  • Bring initiative and a positive attitude from start to finish.
  • Maintain sharp attention to detail—weights, measures, labels, and records.
Reality of the Work
  • Repetitive lifting/carrying of 40–50 lbs.
  • Anything over 50 lbs is lifted with a partner or a mechanical device.
Growth & Team

We value cross-training and problem-solving. You’ll expand your skill set—from packaging to milling—while contributing to a collaborative, safety-focused culture.

This role summary isn’t all-inclusive; responsibilities may evolve with operations.
