We are searching for a Packaging Engineer for our Supply Chain group that has exceptional leadership and critical thinking qualities. This position reports to the Director of Supply Chain. This Manager is responsible for developing, and driving Clients overall packaging strategy. More specifically, this role requires both a strategic and tactical view of these responsibilities, thinking on a broad level about the best way to provide packaging solutions for existing products and new product launches and then on a more narrow and ongoing level, how to optimize consumer experience and customer supply chains through revised and or new packaging.

Packaging plays a critical and significant role in not only the growth strategies of Clients but also our leadership in creating, developing and growing the Clients foods category.

It is also incumbent on this role to be ahead of trends in market and economic drivers for all packaging categories in order to maximize the growth potential for the company.
