• Maintain accurate records and work closely with other departments to keep things moving smoothly

What We’re Looking For:

• 5+ years of supervisory experience in a manufacturing setting (required)
• Strong leadership skills—you know how to motivate, support, and guide a team
• Experience working with safety and quality systems in food production
• Familiarity with lean manufacturing or continuous improvement practices is a plus
• Someone who’s reliable, proactive, and ready to be present on the plant floor all day

Why EW Grobbel?

• We’re growing—and we want leaders who grow with us
• Our roots are local, but our reach is expanding
• You’ll be working in the heart of Eastern Market , surrounded by a passionate team and a historic food community
• Competitive pay, signing bonus, and a chance to make a real impact every day

If you’re a team-focused leader who knows food manufacturing and enjoys working where the action is, we’d love to meet you.
Apply today and help us shape the next chapter of EW Grobbel.
