Salary: $90,000 - $120,000 per year

A bit about us:

We are a global leader in food and beverage ingredients at one of the most significant spice-processing operations in the world.

With 100+ manufacturing facilities globally, we supply ingredients and solutions across cocoa, coffee, dairy, nuts and spices to leading food and beverage manufacturers around the world.

This Production Manager will join the company's Las Cruces, New Mexico operation — the largest processing facility of its kind in the world.

Why join us?
  • Global, established company
  • Amazing, low-cost benefits
  • Family first culture
  • $90K–$120K base plus 15% bonus -- you'll have strong purchasing power in a market where the cost of living is about 9% below the national average and median home values are around $232K.
In addition, our combination of global resources and hands-on plant leadership provides an opportunity to:
  • Lead and develop a substantial manufacturing workforce
  • Drive measurable improvements in safety, quality, efficiency, waste and cost
  • Participate in capital investment and operational improvement projects
  • Build experience within a sophisticated global food manufacturing organization
  • Develop skills and experience that can create additional long-term career opportunities
Most importantly, you'll be joining an operation that matters — producing food ingredients at significant scale for customers around the world.

Job Details

As Production Manager, you'll have overall responsibility for production departments encompassing processing, filling, labeling and packaging.

You'll be responsible for:
  • Leading, coaching and developing salaried and hourly production employees
  • Developing supervisors and other members of the production leadership team
  • Managing production performance against established KPIs
  • Driving improvements in safety, quality, service, efficiency, waste and cost
  • Optimizing labor, materials and production capacity
  • Managing production schedules to achieve inventory and customer requirements
  • Partnering with Quality to maintain GMP, HACCP and food-safety requirements
  • Working closely with Maintenance, Warehouse, Facilities and other Operations leaders
  • Supporting production budgets and analyzing financial performance
  • Identifying and implementing continuous improvement opportunities
  • Participating in capital investment and plant improvement projects
  • Maintaining audit and inspection readiness
  • Developing and maintaining SOPs
  • Supporting sanitation and food-safety programs
  • Building a strong culture of accountability, communication and continuous improvement
What We're Looking For
  • 4+ years of food manufacturing leadership experience
  • Proven success leading and developing production teams
  • Experience managing production budgets, costs and financial performance
  • Knowledge of GMP, HACCP, sanitation and food-safety requirements
  • Experience using production KPIs to improve performance
  • Continuous improvement experience
  • SAP or comparable ERP experience
  • Strong communication, problem-solving and decision-making skills
  • High school diploma required; bachelor's degree preferred
  • Bilingual English/Spanish highly preferred
Why This Location?
Las Cruces offers more than you might expect — affordable living, incredible scenery, abundant sunshine, and an outstanding quality of life.

Located in southern New Mexico's Mesilla Valley and surrounded by the Organ Mountains and Chihuahuan Desert, Las Cruces offers a combination of affordability, sunshine, outdoor recreation and quality of life that's increasingly difficult to find in larger metropolitan areas.

The median value of an owner-occupied home is approximately $232,000, making homeownership considerably more attainable than in many major U.S. manufacturing markets.

You'll also find:
  • A lower-cost housing market than many major metropolitan areas
  • Abundant sunshine and a warm, dry climate - very similar to Phoenix & Tucson, Arizona
  • Spectacular mountain and desert scenery
  • Excellent hiking, biking and outdoor recreation
  • More than 80 city parks
  • Short commutes and significantly less traffic than major cities
  • New Mexico State University and the amenities of a university community
  • Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument practically in your backyard
  • Convenient access to El Paso and El Paso International Airport
It's an opportunity to build your career with a major global manufacturer without paying the housing prices or dealing with the congestion of a major metro area.

And if Las Cruces isn't currently home, we'll help make it one. Full relocation assistance is provided for this opportunity.
