Headquartered in Atlanta, GA, the company prides itself on building long-lasting partnerships and delivering top-notch services that ensure food safety and consumer health. Fortrex Solutions' mission is clear: to protect what matters by safeguarding the food supply, ensuring that families everywhere can eat without fear. This is achieved through an unwavering commitment to safety, ethical standards, teamwork, and continuous innovation of effective, sustainable, and cost-efficient food safety solutions.
We are currently seeking a meticulous and dedicated Food Safety Sanitor to join our vibrant team. This is an entry-level role focused on performing sanitation duties following the company's verified eight-step sanitation process, ensuring compliance with all food safety and workplace safety policies. As a Food Safety Sanitor, you will actively contribute to maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness and safety within food production environments. Working predominantly from 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM, you will engage in physically demanding tasks such as lifting hoses, equipment, and chemical containers, wearing personal protective equipment (PPE), and adapting to varied, sometimes extreme, temperature environments.

On top of meaningful work, the role offers competitive pay at $18.50 per hour, full benefits, and opportunities for bonuses. If you are someone with an eye for detail, safety-conscious, and ready to take instruction and responsibility in a hands-on environment, Fortrex Solutions encourages you to apply and become a part of a company that truly values and supports its team members.
