Ocean Spray is hiring for a(n) Sr. Manager, Environmental Health, Safety & Security (EHS&S)! We’re a team of farmers, thinkers, creators, and doers. Whatever your title, whatever your role — it always comes back to this: we’re a farmer-owned co-op where everyone rolls up their sleeves to get the job done. Three maverick farmers started it all — and we’ve been making our own way ever since.
Position Location: We're all about flexibility! This will be a hybrid role based out of our corporate headquarters in Lakeville, MA with Mondays and Fridays remote.
In this role, the Sr. Manager, Environmental Health, Safety & Security (EHS&S) is responsible for leading and ensuring compliance with all environmental, health, safety, and security standards across Ocean Spray operations in 19 locations. This role develops and implements company-wide EHS policies, leveraging industry expertise, best practices, and functional knowledge to establish comprehensive, compliant, and effective standards.
This leader oversees the EHS network, drives regulatory compliance across U.S., Chile and Canada operations, and ensures safe, secure, and environmentally sound practices. The role requires strong hands-on leadership and a high sense of urgency, serving as both a strategic leader and operational partner to plant teams.
