Avery Dennison is an American materials science company whose predecessor invented the self-adhesive label in 1935, and it remains the largest supplier of pressure-sensitive label materials in the world. Its more interesting recent business is intelligent labels: radio frequency identification tags applied to individual items of clothing, food and medical supplies, which let a retailer or hospital know what it actually has rather than what its records claim. Headquartered in Mentor, Ohio and listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it supplies materials to converters and printers rather than selling finished labels to end users.

Who You Are (Competencies)

  • Accountability: You take ownership of production targets and learn from errors to improve future runs.

  • Mechanical Aptitude: You have a "root cause" mentality and want to understand how your machine works.

  • Display Agility: You can pivot between tasks and shifts as production priorities change.

  • Team Before Self: You are willing to step outside your assigned duties to help a coworker meet a site goal.

Requirements

  • High school diploma or GED.

  • 1-2 years of related experience in a production environment.

  • Strong mechanical skills and attention to detail.

  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and stand for the duration of a shift.
