Role Overview
Located along the Virginia border, we transformed a former brewery in Eden, NC into a technologically advanced pet food manufacturing facility.
We proudly produce leading dry dog and cat food brands, including Purina Pro Plan®, Purina ONE®, and Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets®.
That same commitment extends to a strong focus on sustainability and safety by doing our part to care for the environment through efforts such as conserving water and investing in renewable electricity.
Together, we’re building upon our 100+ year legacy of crafting science-based dog and cat foods that pet owners trust, creating a brighter future for pets and our community.

You will communicate with factory teams on matters pertaining to building operations and ensure all operations are performed in a safe, quality, efficient and cost-effective manner.
