Are you all about all things food? Dips, appetizers, recipes, prepared foods---you love it all. Do you wish you had a 50,000 square-foot kitchen with state-of-the-art equipment? Can you handle the challenge of maintaining Dierbergs' quality standards? If so, you're a top pick for the role of Full-Time Production Associate at our Central Kitchen in Bridgeton, Missouri. We're looking for someone who is:

* An excellent multitasker with a genuine desire to produce food products of impeccable quality
* Motivated to learn through ongoing training and development
* Focused and thorough---in following food safety guidelines, recipes and production goals
* Adaptable to work in all areas of the Central Kitchen in varying controlled temperature zones from 38 to 90+ degrees
* Flexible to work overtime during peak production times
* Reliable and responsible, you arrive on time, every time, ready to seize the day

What's in it for you?

* No overnight shifts required (Most shifts end by 10pm)
* Training and growth potential to help you reach your career goals
* Wellness initiatives and Associate appreciation to keep you engaged and involved

What you need to succeed

* High school diploma or GED
* Open availability
* Ability to lift up to 50 pounds (occasionally), utilize push/pull cart of up to 260lbs, and physical agility required in a fast-paced food production environment
* Ambition and a willingness to learn all aspects of our production environment
* Ability to operate food service equipment such as wrappers, labelers, scales, slicers, ovens, mixers, etc. (training provided)
* The ability to read and interpret production papers and accurately measure ingredients
* This is an entry-level role and we are willing to train; restaurant, production or general labor experience will serve you well
* Knowledge of food safety and sanitation standards is a plus
* Flexibility to take on tasks as needed

Why Dierbergs is different

* Our 50,000 square-foot facility produces hundreds of prepared food items - the ideal environment for someone who enjoys variety and appreciates a close-knit, team-focused environment.
* Opportunities are available in Recipe Preparation, Cooking, Packaging, Sanitation or Shipping/Receiving and you may be cross-trained in other departments.
* As you learn and grow, you will have the support to move into higher-level roles.
* Unlike certain food-industry or production facility jobs that require an insane schedule, most shifts end by 10pm at our Central Kitchen; there are no overnight shifts; you'll be off most holidays; and we're closed on Sundays!
