Material Handler
Job Description
Nestled in southeast Missouri, Bloomfield is a small town with a rich history - and we've been proud to call Bloomfield home to one of our litter factories since 1995. This factory was the first to produce Lightweight® litter, which has revolutionized the category within the pet care industry - a product that weighs half the amount of conventional litter. Unique to this factory is an overhead bridge that allows full pallets of finished products to be conveyed to the distribution warehouse just north of the factory. This innovation, in conjunction with various others, played a meaningful role in Nestlé Purina earning the Malcolm Baldrige Award in manufacturing. In 2020, our Bloomfield factory is undergoing a 110,000-square-foot expansion in processing and packaging. This is a $115 million investment, allowing Nestlé Purina to meet the growing demand from cat owners. With short commutes to St. Louis, Kansas City and the Lake of the Ozarks-you can enjoy daytrips to popular attractions nearby or take pride in the great schools, local businesses and tight-knit community Bloomfield has to offer.
As a Material Handler, you will be responsible for supplying the jug blow molding production lines with all necessary raw materials including tier sheets, plastic pallets, stretch film and banding. In your role, you will use a forklift to removed wrapped pallets of jugs from the production lines and load trailers. You will also store and stack raw materials in the warehouse.
