Order Fulfillment / Delivery Driver

Wells ME

Description

COMPANY DESCRIPTION Founded in 2015 by high school pals Jeff Backer and Dave Viola, Short Creek Farm produces farrow-to-finish pastured pork and grassfed beef on 300 acres of field and forest in Northwood, New Hampshire. We’ve distinguished ourselves with our value-added products—including sausages, smoked meats, and dry salami—many of which are one-of-a-kind and highlight local or seasonal ingredients. As we prepare to open a brand new 6,000-sqft processing facility in Kennebunk, Maine this April, we are seeking hard working folks with a passion for good food to join our tight-knit team. Because we’re small and growing rapidly, this is a unique opportunity to get in on the ground floor and generate real, meaningful impacts each day as we develop together. JOB DESCRIPTION We are looking for a jack-of-all-trades to take the lead on fulfilling wholesale orders, from picking to delivery. The ideal candidate relishes the opportunity to do something different each day. Short Creek’s travels will take you all over New England, from rural Massachusetts to rural Maine and through cities from Portland to Portsmouth to Boston. You’ll get to see behind the scenes of myriad food businesses, from slaughterhouses to tiny specialty retailers to fancy restaurants and wholesale distributors. And because your colleagues are based out of our production facility in Kennebunk, you’ll be the face of the company to most folks out in the world and an inclination for strong customer service is therefore a must. On that note, if you are Sales-curious, there’s a natural opportunity to transition from a delivery position to a traditional sales role as we continue to grow as a company.
