Create a culture where food safety is owned at every level
Turn data into action, identify trends, solve root causes, and implement lasting solutions
Customer Confidence
Lead investigations, product disposition, and corrective actions
Ensure consistent delivery of safe, high-quality products
What You Bring
5+ years of FSQA leadership in food manufacturing
Strong expertise in HACCP, SSOPs, and USDA/FSIS
A leadership style that drives accountability and collaboration
Sharp problem-solving skills and sound decision-making
Ability to influence cross-functional teams in a plant environment
Bachelor’s degree (Food Science or related) preferred
