We’re a company that values ambition and offers real opportunities through entry-level roles that come with robust on-the-job training and genuine pathways to advancement. Here’s what’s in store for you:
Skilled Trades: Mechanics & Electricians
If you’re a hands-on problem solver who enjoys working with machines, skilled trades might be the perfect fit. B&G Foods is actively hiring aspiring Mechanical Technicians and Electricians in our Maintenance team to keep production lines running smoothly and safely.
These roles are ideal for graduates interested in technical work or pursuing a career in the trades. You’ll work alongside experienced professionals, learn to troubleshoot and repair equipment, and build skills that are in high demand across the industry.
Production and Manufacturing Roles
Join the backbone of our operations as a Line Operator, where you’ll oversee machinery to package our beloved brands with precision, ensuring top-notch quality. Or step up as a Sanitation Technician, playing a critical role in maintaining our high safety and cleanliness standards. Even as a Production Worker, you’ll gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced environment. These positions offer competitive hourly wages and serve as a strong foundation for a career in food manufacturing.
Warehouse and Logistics Opportunities
Thrive in action-oriented roles like Warehouse Worker, managing inventory and keeping our distribution humming smoothly, or train to become a Forklift Operator—a skill we can help you develop on the job. These positions are ideal for graduates who enjoy physical work and offer a clear trajectory toward supervisory roles with dedication and drive.
Administrative and Support Positions
While less common at the entry level, graduates with sharp organizational skills or a knack for communication might uncover opportunities in office support—think inventory coordination or customer service assistance—depending on the needs of our local facilities. It’s a chance to contribute in a vital, behind-the-scenes capacity.
Manufacturing Co-op Program
Designed with college students in mind, our co-op program could also be a fit for graduates pursuing technical or vocational education. It’s a unique way to blend part-time work with skill-building, creating a bridge from high school to your next chapter.
What You Need to Know
