Seaquist Orchards Canning Kitchen is looking for a cook for our batch production. Our canning kitchen is mostly automated, with a full filling line that operates filling 3-8,000 jars per day depending on the time of year and products. It’s a fast paced, but fun working environment! This position would be full-time November through June with possible part or full-time July through October if willing to work in other areas of our business. (Possible housing available). We are hoping that this position would begin by November but possibly could begin work sooner than that.

Required qualification:
-Being able to stand all day, lift 50+lb through-out the day, and can bend, squat, lift, and dance
-Someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced working environment and can multi-task well
-Someone who is a quick learner, works well in a team, a go-getter, good attitude, and great work ethic
Bonus qualifications:
-An innovator
-Has experience working in a restaurant kitchen or production kitchen
-Mechanical
-Can drive forklift
Schedule:
M-Th 6am-3pm and F 7am-10am (end time always fluctuates some depending on batches scheduled each day) (Never weekends!)
Benefits:
-Competitive pay (3-month review with opportunity to increase wage), paid holidays, benefits starting after one year, including vacation time, 401K and medical stipend.
-Door County winter full work! And working outside of the Door County tourism industry!
-Working in a family-owned business, we care deeply about our employees, and you join our family when you join our team!
