• A team player who can work independently while supporting and mentoring others
• Someone with a sharp eye for quality and presentation, and the physical stamina to do the job (lift up to 50 lbs, stand for extended periods, work in cold environments)
• A commitment to food safety, cleanliness, and efficiency
• Friendly, engaging, and confident in customer interactions
• Open availability, including evenings, weekends, and holidays

Why L’OCA?

• Skilled Trade, Quality Environment: Use your craft where it’s respected — from whole animal breakdown to scratch-made sausage, we do it the right way.
• Room to grow: Leadership opportunities, mentorship, and further training available for those looking to advance
• Positive culture: Work with a team that values hard work, craftsmanship, and kindness
• Good pay: Starting at $20–$23/hr, based on experience and skill
