As a Canning Line Operator, you will travel to different local craft breweries to help our customers get their products packaged in cans. You will work as a team with the brewery employees in an interesting and ever-changing environment. Mobile canning equipment will be loaded in the truck every morning and unloaded at the daily brewery, and the opposite done at the end of the day. Operators are not only interacting with the beer and with the machinery but also with the brewers and customers. The Canning Line Operator is the last line of defense for Quality control before a canned product leaves a facility and goes out on the shelves.
