WE SUPPORT YOUR CAREER DEVELOPMENT, WHATEVER YOUR GOAL.
WHERE ARE YOU IN YOUR CAREER NOW? WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GO? WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO GET YOU THERE?
People have different reasons for being employed. Some want a career with growing responsibility and leadership. Some focus on a specific skill, honing their expertise to become the go-to resource. Others simply want a place to feel valued and be part of a team.
No matter where you want to go in your employment, MKC is here to help. We foster individualized career development, with personalized goals. And we work with you to reach those goals, one by one.
We train you. Support you in your learning. And then deliver opportunities for success. Whether your desire is to remain in a role and become an expert, to go on a broad path in many directions, or something else – your career path is a celebrated journey at MKC.
Talk to us about the opportunities at MKC, and let’s make it happen together.
“I’ve been with MKC going on thirteen years. The value put on your personal development is limitless. MKC has given me the opportunity to build a career path and challenged me to get involved with both National and International growth opportunities. I can’t think of a better place to grow professionally and enhance my value to the organization.”
While most benefits are measured in dollars, we believe a distinctive benefit at MKC is how you are supported in your career development. A rewarding career is difficult to measure, but it certainly can be felt. There’s a certain satisfaction in going to work and enjoying each day.
In addition, you’ll find we provide a generous package of financial benefits for full-time employees that provide security today and throughout retirement.
A prime example of this is our pension plan, which is in addition to our 401(k). A pension provides you with a lifetime income, so you won’t have to worry about how much to save or where to invest for retirement. It’s all done for you.
- Medical, dental and life insurance
- Medical and dependent care flexible spending accounts
- 401(k) retirement program
- Pension plan
- Paid short- and long-term disability
- Paid holidays
- Paid time off
- Funeral leave
- Employee assistance program (for example, financial advice, mental health counseling)
- Employee savings account
- Wellness program and incentives
- Yearly uniform allowance
“The Coop Retirement Plan is my financial anchor, providing a reliable and on-time monthly payment. Unlike other investments, its consistency stands out. If I could sell all my other investments and put that money into the Coop Retirement Plan to give me a larger guaranteed payment for the rest of my life, I would do it.”
SEASONAL AND PART-TIME OPPORTUNITIES
We offer excellent part-time positions, and seasonal opportunities are available to support to our operations staff during busy seasons. You can work close to home for competitive wages and gain the potential for a full-time career – if that’s your goal.
