We're excited to announce an opening for a Plant Controller II at our Centerville, IA facility! Curious what life’s like around here? Centerville, Ottumwa, Albia, and even Kirksville, MO have a lot to offer. Think small‑town friendliness, quick commutes, affordable homes, and neighborhoods where folks actually know each other. Grab groceries and you’ll probably see a neighbor—most people wave. On weekends, you might go fishing at Rathbun Lake, catch a high school football game, or stroll through historic downtowns.

Centerville is tight‑knit and welcoming. Ottumwa is just up the road with plenty of shops, healthcare, and a growing arts and dining scene. Albia has that classic small‑town charm, and Kirksville, just over the border, brings all the perks of a college town. If you’re dreaming of a job that comes with a genuinely better quality of life—lower living costs, more time, less stress, and real community—you’ll find it here.
