Current Company Challenges

We know we can get better.  Our current initiatives include: more fully integrated recently purchased businesses, building a deeper continuous improvement approach in everything that we do, and focus on being the “employer of choice” in all of our locations.  Our opportunity is to not get complacent with our successes.

Values

Our culture is founded on the principles of Innovation, Quality, Safety and Execution.   These aren’t just hollow terms – these values permeate through our facilities and client interactions.

Culture

Many manufacturing cultures are dominated by huge egos, knee-jerk decision making, and lack of long-term strategic plans.  We’ve proven that our company does not need those attributes to be successful.  We invite you to directly explore these areas when speaking with us.

What’s In It For Me?

We look for people who want to be heard and who want to make an impact on an environment. There are so many areas where we can improve and we need people committed to addressing them.  This opportunity is about elevating the Sales function; which in turn will have tremendous benefits for our people and the company.
