ABOUT EMMERSON PACKAGING

Emmerson Packaging is a third-generation, family-owned company and an industry leader in flexible packaging solutions. We’ve been named one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies for 17 consecutive years — a reflection of how seriously we take our people, our clients, and our craft.

Our values guide every decision we make:

We enhance our lives by helping others succeed
We care about our clients, each other, and our communities
We are responsible for the outcome of our actions
We strive to do the right thing, even if it costs us

ROLE SUMMARY

The General Operator performs production tasks in support of manufacturing operations, ensuring products are produced safely, efficiently, and in accordance with company quality standards and procedures. Placement within a specific production area will be based on business needs.

YOUR SCHEDULE

4 ON 4 OFF

Work 4 days, then enjoy 4 days off — every rotation. Two day shifts followed by two night shifts, then four consecutive days off. This gives you more long weekends than a standard 5-day work week.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Operate and monitor production equipment following standard operating procedures
Set up, adjust, and perform basic troubleshooting on machinery as needed
Inspect products and materials to ensure they meet quality specifications
Maintain accurate production records and report deviations to your supervisor
Keep your work area clean, organized, and compliant with SQF and safety standards
Collaborate with your team to meet production targets
Follow all health, safety, and environmental policies and procedures

REQUIREMENTS

High school diploma or equivalent
Minimum 1 year of experience working in a manufacturing environment
Good mechanical aptitude — able to perform basic equipment adjustments
Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality and accuracy
Clear communication skills, both verbal and written
Comfortable working rotating shifts including days and nights
Able to lift 40 lbs and stand for extended periods
Basic computer literacy (Microsoft Word and Excel)

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Experience in a flexographic or flexible packaging environment
Familiarity with quality control or inspection processes
Knowledge of SQF or food safety standards

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU

Competitive wages: $21–$24/hr + $2.00/hr night shift premium
Comprehensive health and dental benefits
Defined contribution pension plan
Profit sharing program
Training and development support
On-site gym and cafeteria
Be part of a team recognized as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies

IMMIGRATION & WORK AUTHORIZATION

We welcome applications from Canadian citizens and permanent residents. We also encourage applications from individuals currently holding an open work permit.

Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP) — Designated Employer

Emmerson Packaging is a designated employer under the Atlantic Immigration Program (AIP). If you are an international candidate interested in building a future in Nova Scotia, we actively support AIP applications for qualified candidates. To be eligible, you must have at least 2.5 years (30 months) remaining on your current work permit at the time of application.
