Who We Are Looking For:

This position is responsible for assisting in many areas, but primarily you will be operating the toting stations, filling super sacks with oatmeal and other grain ingredients to send to our customers for use in some of your favorite products. After filling the supersack and removing it from the tote station with a forklift, you will use our warehouse information system to enter the product into inventory and print labels to be applied for tracking purposes. When the supersack has been labelled, tied shut, and stretch wrapped, you will then take it to our warehouse for temporary storage. While you are waiting for your next supersack to fill, you will be organizing supplies, checking magnets for foreign material, performing quality checks, and keeping your work area clean.
