Lead Packer- Bethel Team D
Your Mission
Your Mission (should you choose to accept it): You’ll be the frontline captain of our packing operations. Think: snacks meet strategy. You’ll keep things moving smoothly, from the time the chips leave the kettle room, through splicing film like a snack ninja, to coaching the packing crew like a champ. Your work touches every chip bag we send out, so no pressure (okay, maybe some pressure).
What You’ll Do
- Maintain packaging equipment, including weights, sealing, film splicing, and date coding
- Support your team to meet quality, safety, and productivity goals
- Engage across shifts to promote a consistent, collaborative, and positive work environment
- Lead by example by maintaining a clean, safe, and organized work area
- Perform metal detector checks, adjust machines, and ensure proper product flow and scale accuracy
- Change film rolls and formers as needed; troubleshoot minor equipment issues
- Ensure correct packing according to customer specifications (seals, weights, date codes, labels, etc.)
- Monitor and adjust seasoning levels for quality and consistency
- Inspect and hand-pack product at line speed with attention to detail
- Handle product rework and repacking tasks as necessary
- Use forklifts, pallet jacks, and other equipment as trained
- Keep accurate documentation and complete logs on quality checks, production data, and inspections
- Communicate clearly and professionally with team members and supervisors
- Clean and sanitize production equipment and work areas per food safety standards
- Provide lunch and break coverage to team members
- Perform other duties as assigned by leadership
What We’re Looking For
- A team player with a strong work ethic and positive attitude
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, physically demanding environment
- Prior food manufacturing or packing line experience preferred (but not required)
- Leadership experience or a desire to grow into a leadership role
- Ability to lift up to 50 lbs. and work on your feet for a 12-hour shift
- Willingness to work in hot, loud, and occasionally wet conditions
- Knowledge of GMPs, HACCP, and food safety best practices a plus
