    DESCRIPTION

    About us:

    Our mission is to brew the most creative, highest quality beer we can, and get it into the hands of anyone who prefers more interesting beers. We call ourselves Houston’s Most Creative Brewery because we brew a crazy number of constantly rotating recipes involving ingredients and flavor combinations that are atypical for the beer industry. But the truth is, we’re actually really traditional in our approach, and are process-driven and detail-oriented. People love us or hate us, and it takes a very specific type of person to thrive in our culture. We seek out intellectually curious individuals who relish the challenge of extremely high standards without getting flustered by the fact that we are constantly improvising and revising the plan based on new information. We are a very small company that has grown at an incredible pace in its first four years, and is poised to grow even more. We’ve had our fair share of growing pains and have plenty more coming, so we seek out individuals who can bring structure to chaos and will enjoy our fast-paced, hard-driving culture.

    Job Overview:

    This is an Entry-Level Position. No Experience is necessary.

    We set extremely high standards for ourselves & we dream big. But it’s easy to craft mission statements & build powerpoint decks- the hard part is and always will be execution. The position of Cellar Operator is where the rubber meets the road. It’s where we translate ideas into action, and it’s where some of the hardest work happens, both physically & intellectually.

    Specific Duties:

    The Cellar Operator has a diverse set of responsibilities that are all essential to Buffbrew’s success. Success in this specific position will come by doing the following tasks thoroughly and with excellence:

    Ability to manage and coordinate all cellar activities
    Conduct regular CIP and sanitation of fermenters and brite tanks
    Compile and update SOP’s
    Conduct daily QA/QC procedures
    Inform Head Brewer promptly of any issues
    Help with the preparation and packaging of daily orders
    Have an obsession with maintaining a clean production facility
    Must be a creative and proactive team member looking to enhance a quality driven environment
    Be proficient in basic lab work
    Perform gravity and pH readings
    Dry hopping and secondary ingredient additions
    Knowledge of yeast cell counts and pitching
    Accurate daily record keeping and sampling of beer in process
    Contributing to positive work environment through open and constructive dialog
    Contribute and be receptive to continual innovation and improvements
    Assist in any other tasks needed to run a successful brewery
    Maintain a safe and secure working environment
    Represent Buffbrew in various marketing-related activities including special events, promotional videos, sales calls, and other similar activities
    In addition to the preceding list of clearly-defined responsibilities, there are a plethora of unpredictable tasks that arise on a day-to-day basis. The Cellar Operator must always put the team above the individual and take on additional tasks & responsibilities as needed, pursuing them with the same passion, care, and attention to detail as s/he does every other task. Flexibility is critical.

    REQUIREMENTS

    The ideal candidate will have experience in a production brewing environment, but it is not a requirement. Technical expertise or experience repairing and maintaining complex machinery is a plus, but not required. Must have a clean driving record, including no offenses more severe than simple traffic and parking tickets. Must be able to obtain and maintain TABC permits.

    The position of Cellar Operator is an extremely active and physically demanding role. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform essential job functions. While performing the essential duties of this job, the employee is frequently required to: stand; walk; use hands to handle or feel objects, tools or controls; reach with hands and arms; climb, balance, stoop, kneel, crouch, crawl, talk and hear. A Cellar & Production Assistant lifts extremely heavy objects often, frequently lifting and/or moving up to 55 pounds, and must be able to move kegs that weigh as much as 170 pounds.

    The location of this position is in the brewhouse and throughout the warehouse and production floor. Therefore, the work environment consists of conditions typical of a normal manufacturing production environment. The noise level is higher than a normal office environment. Additionally, heavy objects and heavy equipment will be operated in the general proximity of the employee filling this position. Temperature conditions vary extremely as well: the individual’s tasks occur in both the normal production facility, which is not climate-controlled and therefore ranges from 40°F to 110°F, and in the refrigerated cold box, which ranges from 33°F to 40°F.

    We are an equal opportunity employer. Applicants are considered for positions without regard to veteran status, uniformed service member status, race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, physical or mental disability, genetic information or any other category protected by applicable federal, state, or local laws.

    THIS COMPANY IS AN AT-WILL EMPLOYER AS ALLOWED BY TEXAS LAW. THIS MEANS THAT REGARDLESS OF ANY PROVISION IN THIS APPLICATION, IF HIRED, THE COMPANY MAY TERMINATE THE EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE OR NOTICE.
    BENEFITS

    Buffbrew offers Health Insurance, 401k matching, paid vacation, and other benefits
