Bunge says it is looking to hire more than 70 full-time employees for its expanded production facility in Shelby County.
This is Bunge’s largest hiring initiative to date in the region and is connected to the plant’s expansion with the construction of a $550 million fully integrated soy protein concentrate and textured soy protein concentrate facility near Morristown.
The job openings include hourly Production, Material Handling, Packaging, Warehouse Operators, Maintenance Mechanics, Engineers and Quality Food Safety Experts.
“This is an exciting time to join our growing company. Bunge has been an anchor in the Morristown community for 25+ years and we are expanding our operations to continue to meet the growing demand for our products,” said Brian Douville, Bunge’s Vice President Emulsifiers and Proteins. “We are proud to have dynamic and high performing teams creating ingredients for the fast-growing plant-based protein segment. We are looking for individuals who don’t just come here to work, they come here to grow and be part of a dynamic team,” he continued.
In a press release, Bunge says that starting wages for qualified applicants are $28.00 per hour—including a compensation and benefits package. The company says it will also provide training and developmental opportunities for new employees.
