Job Description
Position Summary
This is an entry-level manufacturing role where you will train on how to process, dry, and package whey products used in food production. You'll learn different areas of the whey operation while working closely with experienced operators and supervisors. No prior whey experience is required-we provide training. This role supports safe production, product quality, and teamwork on the production floor.

What You'll Do

Learn and assist in multiple whey processing roles through on-the-job training
Support operators with equipment cleaning and sanitation (CIP)
Help prepare, clean, and maintain processing equipment
Monitor basic process conditions during start-up, shutdown, and cleaning cycles
Perform routine cleaning and simple preventative maintenance tasks
Move finished products to storage areas
Safely handle cleaning chemicals using proper PPE
Complete production and quality paperwork accurately
Follow all food safety, quality, and safety procedures
Communicate with team members and supervisors to keep operations running smoothly
Participate in required safety and job training

Schedule

Full-time, 12-hour shifts
Rotating schedule, including weekends (Double time on Sunday!)

What We're Looking For

Reliable and team-oriented
Willing to learn and take initiative
Detail-focused and safety-minded
Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment

This position does not supervise other employees.

Why Join Us?
✅ Career growth opportunities
✅ Predictable schedules - know your hours every week
✅ Clean, organized, food-grade environment (not a typical factory)
✅ Strong, stable local company
✅ Great people and team culture

Work Environment

Food manufacturing facility
Exposure to noise, moving equipment, vibration, and cleaning chemicals
Use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is required

Qualifications

High school diploma or GED
Must be able to maintain forklift certification
Must be at least 18 years old
