We’re Midwest Cremation Service, part of North America's largest provider of pet aftercare services. Our Anoka facility is an inclusive home to a warm, friendly crew, who take pride in the meaningful work they do.
We’re committed to our mission to exceed our clients’ expectations in a responsible, caring, and ethical way – and we’re looking for a full-time Operations Team Member who feels the same. You’ll work with a close-knit team you know you can depend on, one that provides comprehensive aftercare services that include cremation, grief support, and memorials.
What you’ll do
- Your daily duties may vary between operating the retort, creating and packaging paw prints, engraving plaques and memorial items, quality control, and processing and packaging cremated remains
- Maintain daily cremation goals, producing cremains with an emphasis on compassion and excellence
- Assist with pick-ups/deliveries from our Vets/animal hospitals as needed.
- Take ownership of our machinery – making adjustments, providing feedback, and submitting maintenance requests

- Solutions come easy to you – problem-solving and quick thinking are your thing

- Certain PPE is required for different tasks, but we’ll provide that for you
- Overtime and weekend work may be available during busier times
- Working in varying temperatures – the area near the retorts can be very warm, while packaging areas are more of a controlled climate
