Job Description

UniFirst is a well-established leader in the garment services industry, boasting an impressive 80-year history and global presence. With annual revenues reaching 2 billion dollars and a workforce of over 14,000 team partners, UniFirst caters to more than 300,000 business customer locations across the U.S., Canada, and Europe. The company's footprint in this $18 billion industry is significant, and it has received notable accolades, such as ranking in the top 10 of Selling Power magazine's "Best Companies to Sell For" and inclusion in Forbes magazine's "Platinum 400 - Best Big Companies" list. UniFirst combines the best of both worlds by maintaining a unique family-oriented culture while leveraging the resources and stability of a large international organization. This environment cultivates a sense of belonging and growth for each team partner.

UniFirst is currently seeking a reliable and hardworking Production Team Partner to join their esteemed team. This full-time position is ideal for candidates looking for stability, career growth, and a positive work-life balance, highlighted by a standard 40-hour workweek with weekends off. The role centers around valuable production work that directly impacts the quality and timely delivery of orders to customers. As part of the production department, team partners will actively participate in preparing and handling orders, managing floor mats, and ensuring strict adherence to safety and quality standards. On-the-job training is provided, making it an excellent opportunity for individuals looking to develop new skills or enter the industry.

Career advancement is a core value at UniFirst, with many managers having started on the production floor themselves. Cross-training is a hallmark of this role, exposing team partners to various aspects of production, which not only enhances current performance but also opens pathways for future professional growth. Candidates can expect to engage in bundling, packaging, and inspecting items, handling machine operations in some instances, and more, all within a supportive and inclusive company culture. UniFirst’s commitment to diversity ensures a welcoming workplace where a rich mix of cultures and backgrounds contributes to a robust and dynamic team environment.

Compensation for the role comes in the form of competitive hourly pay, reinforced with a generous benefits package that includes 401K with company match, profit sharing, health insurance, life insurance, paid time off, tuition reimbursement, and employee assistance programs. Additional perks such as direct payroll deposit, a 30% employee discount, and employee referral bonuses further demonstrate UniFirst’s dedication to rewarding and supporting its workforce. The company prioritizes ethical hiring practices and accommodations for individuals with disabilities or medical conditions, ensuring equal opportunity and fairness throughout the employment process.

This position is perfect for someone who meets physical capability requirements such as standing and walking for a full shift, lifting moderate weights, and possesses strong communication and basic math skills. The work environment is safe and respects medical and HACCP guidelines, ensuring everyone’s well-being. Overall, joining UniFirst as a Production Team Partner means becoming part of a company that values its employees, fosters growth, and leads the garment services industry with a strong family spirit and dedicated focus on diversity and inclusion.
