- Hybrid Track:
- Spend Year 1 in a Protein production facility, gaining hands-on experience in areas such as plant operations, shipping/receiving, warehouse management, food safety, and continuous improvement.
- Spend Year 2 in a corporate supply chain role in Wichita, KS, gaining hands-on experience in areas such as supply planning, production scheduling, inventory management, transportation, raw material procurement.
- Supply Chain-Only Track:

This role may require shifts including 2nd and 3rd shift and weekend hours during the operations rotation
