Popcorn Production

Are you looking for a stable position with a predictable schedule that actually gives you more days off out of the year? Spherion Staffing is partnering with a premier food manufacturing facility in North Mankato to hire reliable, detail-oriented Popcorn Production Workers. With our rotating schedule, you will know your entire calendar for the whole year and work roughly one-third fewer days annually than a standard five-day workweek!

Choose the schedule that best fits your lifestyle. Both positions operate on a rotating 2-2-3 schedule (work 2 days, off 2 days, work 3 days), which includes working every other weekend.

• Day Shift: 6:00 AM - 6:00 PM | $17.75 / hour
• Night Shift: 6:00 PM - 6:00 AM | $19.25 / hour

• Work 36 hours one week and 48 hours the next (with built-in overtime pay!)
• Built-in 3-day weekends every other week.
• Predictable, set calendar planned out a full year in advance.

• Monitor and operate electric popping kettles, seasoning applicators, and automated packaging machinery.
• Follow precise product recipes, batch sheets, and ingredient measurements to ensure the final product meets "gold standard" quality.
• Visually inspect ingredients and finished product moving down the conveyor line to catch defects, burnt kernels, or packaging errors.
• Efficiently pack finished snack bags into master cartons, tape boxes, and stack/palletize goods according to shipping patterns.
• Maintain a clean, sanitized work area in strict compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and facility food safety regulations.
