Vital Farms, Inc. • Springfield, MO

About The Position

When it comes to production, you know every minute and every detail counts. You're the kind of person who takes pride in keeping things running smoothly-tracking materials, updating schedules, and jumping in to fix small problems before they crack into big ones. That's exactly the kind of Production & Supply Chain Coordinator we're looking for at Vital Farms: someone who's organized, calm under pressure, and committed to getting things done the right way-every time. Because here's the deal-at Vital Farms, we're on a mission to bring ethical food to the table, one thoughtfully sourced ingredient at a time. While we're best known for our pasture-raised eggs-giving our hens 108 square feet to roam and calling bullsht on terms like "cage-free" and "free-range"-we're just getting started. We give a cluck about our crew, our farmers, and the planet we all share. If that sounds like something you care about too, we'd love to talk about how you can help us keep production running sunny-side up. Fluent in the language of production schedules, inventory flow, and on-the-floor coordination, you're that rare bird who thrives in both teamwork and independent flight. You're comfortable working in ERP systems and on the production floor, tracking materials from receiving to finished goods, and making sure every product, pallet, and process is accurate and on time. You've got egg-ceptional attention to detail, strong communication skills, and the kind of ownership mindset that keeps everything on track-because at Vital Farms, precision in production means purpose in every carton.

Requirements

• First, you bring a big ol' helping of passion for ethically sourced, nutritious food and purpose-driven brands. And you bring extra napkins.

• You've got strong MS Office skills-especially in Excel-and know your way around spreadsheets like a pro.
• You're confident working in ERP systems and using data to make decisions and solve problems.
• You have excellent verbal and written communication skills, and you know how to tailor your message for your audience.
• You're a dedicated team player who believes that we is greater than me-you celebrate others' wins and know collaboration is key.
• You give a sht. About the animals. About relationships. About keeping things real. You act like an owner and take pride in being part of Vital Farms.
• You hold yourself to high standards and strive to grow personally and professionally every day.
• You can walk in someone else's boots-you seek to understand different perspectives and believe better answers come from working together.
• Honest conversations don't ruffle your feathers. You're not afraid to speak up when you see an opportunity to improve-and you expect the same from your teammates.

Responsibilities
