The General Manager Trainee role is designed to prepare high-potential leaders for future General Manager and operational leadership opportunities across our national network.

  • Time Off & Family Support : Paid Time Off (PTO), parental leave, and tuition reimbursement
  • Wellness & Assistance Programs : Wellness program, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), and Medicare support
  • Employee Perks : Referral program, employee discount programs, and propane savings
Responsibilities
  • Learn all aspects of propane operations, logistics, safety, customer service, and business management
  • Partner with experienced leaders to drive operational performance and team success
  • Develop leadership skills through hands-on training, coaching, and real-world business experience
  • Support sales growth, operational efficiency, and customer retention initiatives
  • Gain exposure to budgeting, KPIs, workforce leadership, and P&L management

  • Operational, logistics, transportation, service, or related leadership experience preferred
  • Bachelor's degree preferred or equivalent work experience
  • Ability to travel within region as needed
  • Willingness to relocate after approximately 12 months in the development program is required

Why Ferrellgas?

At Ferrellgas we're honored to be part of tight-knit communities across America and thousands of customers' lives.
