Job Details
We’re looking for a hands-on, systems-oriented Quality Manager who can lead plant-level QA functions and ensure we stay fully compliant with USDA, BRC, and customer expectations, while mentoring and developing the QA team.
This isn’t a clipboard-on-the-catwalk kind of job. We’re looking for someone who can own the entire quality and regulatory process, from micro testing to pre-op to internal audits, and everything in between.
️ What You’ll Be Doing:
Leading and mentoring the Quality team (QA, Sanitation, and FSQA staff)
Managing all plant-level USDA interactions, including daily inspections, NRs, and pre-op
Leading internal and third-party audit preparation (BRC, SQF, customer audits)
Overseeing HACCP and SSOP programs, including updates, training, and implementation
Reviewing micro results, product holds, and release documentation
Ensuring compliance with USDA, FDA, and GFSI (BRC) regulations and standards
Partnering cross-functionally with Production, Sanitation, Maintenance, and R&D during trial runs and continuous improvement initiatives
Leading root cause analysis and CAPA for non-conformances and customer complaints
Maintaining and improving QA documentation, SOPs, and recordkeeping
Supporting training programs to drive food safety culture across the facility
✅ What We’re Looking For:
5+ years in food manufacturing quality or food safety, with at least 2 years in a leadership or management role
Direct experience in USDA-regulated facilities (meat, poultry, protein)
Strong knowledge of BRC, SQF, or GFSI standards
HACCP certified (PCQI a plus)
Experience with SSOPs, micro testing, and USDA documentation
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, protein manufacturing environment
Systems experience with ERP platforms like SAP, DCL, or similar
B.S. in Food Science, Microbiology, or related field preferred
