Operations Management Associate Position

Our fast-paced plants are powered by collaboration, passion, and a shared commitment to our vision of nourishing the world.

During this time, you will get the support and inspiration you need to choose your own path in developing an exciting career with global impact. Based on your performance and after approximately 12 months in this role, you will work with your manager to identify your next role as an Operations Plant Leader at a different location. You will need to relocate. Relocation assistance will be provided for your first official role as a Plant Leader. As an Operations Management Associate, you may also be asked to work at different locations to help with local needs and advance your career development. With us, your future opportunities are endless. During your time here, the path your training takes may include:

  • Operations
  • Environmental, Health & Safety Leadership
  • Engineering/Maintenance

Environment

When you join one of our Grain Facilities, expect a hands-on work environment where you will get dirty and dusty. That's because these are boots on the ground roles where you spend about 80% of your time out of the office, working to ensure our facilities are run safely and efficiently. Here you'll learn elevator operations and eventually lead a small team. You'll feel the wind in your face and sun on your skin from the tops of our silos. It is sometimes challenging work as you will have the possibility of working varying shift hours, 8 to 14-hour shifts, and even 6 to 7-day weeks depending on customer demand. As an industry leader, it's all part of contributing to a successful team that is doing things right, reaching higher, and putting people first. Your work in these facilities will be vital to our mission of nourishing the world.
