Jason, tell us something about yourself and your team.
“Currently, I am pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management & working as the Logistics Manager here at the Kenosha (DC) Distribution Center. Our team handles shipping and receiving functions for the US, and there are currently 11 of us working here. I believe most people would say Kenosha feels like a small town, but Kenosha is the 4th largest city in Wisconsin. The DC cooperates with every department in Kenosha and multiple departments throughout the company either directly or indirectly.”
What do you see as the most rewarding part of your work?
The most rewarding part is being able to service our customers both internally and outside of the organization. Customer service is one of the most important things we do here.... oh yes, and I hear we make some rather good casings.
The opportunities ViskoTeepak provides are a true testament that where someone starts is not where they must end up. Numerous employees throughout the company have started in one department or position and moved on to bigger and better things.
