• Shop Leadership & Quality: Set the pace for efficiency, maintain razor-sharp sanitation standards, and help guide shop workflow during peak seasons.

• High-volume wild game processing experience (venison season hustle).
• Experience with custom curing, smoking, or specialty sausage formulation.
• Ambitious mindset with a desire to take on shop management or lead butcher responsibilities.

Perks & Career Opportunity

• Hourly Pay Rate: $18.00 – $23.00 per hour (commensurate with verified whole-carcass skill and speed) .
• Overtime & Stability: Busy year-round project pipeline with high-volume seasonal overtime to maximize your earnings.
