About The Position

At Holganix, we revolutionize the way the world grows by manufacturing and distributing a liquid microbial solution (think of it as a probiotic for soil) to primarily farmers (but also landscapers, golf courses, and performance turf users) across America and Canada. Our solution dramatically increases soil health, ultimately improving crop yield and reducing the need for other inputs like fertilizer, pesticides, and water. Additionally, our solution significantly impacts carbon sequestration in the soil and improves the carbon intensity score of a crop. As a Forklift Operator, you will be directly responsible for assisting the brewing process to produce high-quality products. You will load trucks and cold rooms with finished goods and help keep the warehouse organized. This role is critical to maintaining the quality and consistency of our brewing operations while supporting broader production goals.
