We have juicy jobs! (Literally – you’ll help make juice.) Brace yourselves – the grapes are coming. Starting in September 2020, Welch’s – one of the largest food production plants in the northeast U.S. – will start their grape harvest season right next door in Lawton and they rely on WSI associates to help make the season successful. Here’s what’s interesting about grape harvest: the infamously healthy concord grapes are grown by local family farmer owners, are picked at their peak, and pressed into juice within 8 hours of harvesting.
Though busy harvest season lasts just a few months in the summer, it offers grape – er, great – opportunities to work a lot of hours, including overtime, which really packs a punch in your paycheck. As a seasonal associate, you’ll work with a team to process grapes and produce approximately 2.5 million cases of the company's sparkling juice cocktails, which is one of the company's most profitable products. You could work on the specialty glass line, as a juice crate thrower, and/or in general packing/inspecting. Certain positions will require additional testing (i.e. forklift, ammonia sign-off, etc.)
Let's get Juicy!!
