Description

We're adding a Warehouse Associate to our team.

Are you a person who can’t imagine sitting at a desk all day, boxed in by four walls?

• Do you need variety?
• Do you want to put your great computer skills and inventory knowledge to good use?
• Do you need to be able to move around?
• Do you need challenge?
• Do you thrive in an environment where people will actually stop and speak to you instead of looking the other way as you pass by?
• Do you look at an empty semi and get excited to play a real-life game of Tetris as you load it?

If that's you, you could be the Warehouse Associate our team needs.

While you’ll operate within the overall structure, you’ll have freedom to make decisions on how to best get the work done efficiently and effectively. We’ll trust you to use your prior warehouse and forklift experience to make those decisions, but the team will be there to support you if you ask for help.

And that game of Tetris? You’ll definitely get the high score, because you’ll call upon your past experience loading and unloading trucks to work quickly and effectively.

You’ll take garbage outside to the dumpsters.
• You may work in our main production warehouse supporting the production lines, in the distribution center (freezer building), or at the raw ingredient warehouse. All three areas are located on the Country Maid Campus in West Bend, Iowa.
• Sometimes you’ll work off all those free pastries and cakes you’ll get to take home by hopping off the forklift to hand palletize supplies or build orders.

You’ll be excited to talk to others, stopping to answer questions from your colleagues in Production. You’ll use the computer skills you picked up at past jobs verify production and supply requirements.

You won’t be bored, that’s for sure.
