Position Overview

The Packaging Support I supports Honey Green's Packaging and Final Assembly operations. Learns standardized work and completes assigned tasks with regular direction and verification.

Packaging team members may cross-support Flower Processing & QC when trained and assigned.

Core Responsibilities

Operations & Technical Execution

  • Execute assigned packaging and final-assembly workflows for cannabis products, which may include flower, pre-rolls, cartridges/vapes, concentrates, and edibles.
  • Weigh, fill, seal, cap, label, box, and stage products using approved specifications, work instructions, and packaging equipment appropriate to the assigned line.
  • Perform in-process checks for weight tolerance, fill level, seal integrity, label placement, batch/lot accuracy, package condition, and presentation; stop or escalate work when requirements are not met.
  • Complete production counts, material usage, label reconciliation, packaging-material inventory, and required inventory/track-and-trace records accurately.
  • Perform line setup, changeover, cleaning, sanitation, and shutdown activities and promptly report equipment malfunctions, material shortages, or quality concerns.
  • Support Flower Processing & QC quality and finishing activities when trained and assigned, while maintaining Packaging as the primary assignment.
  • Complete assigned tasks using approved methods and seek clarification when instructions, quality criteria, or documentation requirements are unclear.
  • Build proficiency in required tools, equipment, sanitation practices, records, and material-handling expectations through structured training and coaching.

Level-Specific Scope & Accountability

  • Perform basic manual packaging tasks such as counting, staging, placing product/components, boxing, labeling support, cleanup, and material replenishment after training.
  • Learn product-format, label, packaging-component, and line-clearance requirements and stop work when product identity or instructions cannot be confirmed.
  • Inspect packaging materials for visible damage, incorrect components, missing labels, or other obvious defects and segregate questionable material for review.
  • Maintain organized workstations and return unused labels, components, and product to designated locations at changeover or shift end.

Safety, Compliance & Reliability

  • Maintain reliable and punctual attendance; report ready to work for the scheduled shift and follow established scheduling, break, call-off, and timekeeping expectations.
  • Wear, inspect, and properly use all required personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow task-specific safety procedures, equipment safeguards, ergonomic practices, emergency procedures, and required training.
  • Follow approved SOPs, work instructions, quality standards, facility security requirements, cannabis regulations, and required inventory or track-and-trace documentation applicable to assigned work.
  • Maintain sanitation, housekeeping, hygiene, and cross-contamination controls appropriate to the work area and protect products, equipment, data, and controlled-access spaces from preventable contamination, damage, or loss.
  • Promptly report injuries, near misses, unsafe conditions, equipment concerns, product-quality issues, documentation errors, inventory discrepancies, security concerns, and potential compliance deviations through the appropriate escalation path.

Working Conditions

  • Work is primarily performed in controlled packaging and final-assembly areas with sanitation and environmental requirements established for product protection and process consistency.
  • Team Members may transition through warehouse, staging, and storage areas where temperature and humidity fluctuate seasonally.
  • Frequent exposure to cannabis flower, concentrates, oils, finished products, packaging materials, cleaning agents, and moderate equipment noise is expected.
  • Packaging and Flower Processing & QC remain separate workgroups but routinely cross-support one another when team members are trained and assigned to do so.

Physical Requirements

  • Stand, sit, or move between workstations for extended periods and frequently bend, reach, twist, or squat to handle materials and supplies.
  • Perform repetitive hand, wrist, and arm motions and fine-motor tasks associated with weighing, filling, sealing, capping, labeling, boxing, and quality inspection.
  • Lift, carry, push, or pull up to 50 pounds of product, packaging materials, totes, or equipment components, using assistance when appropriate.
  • Read labels, scales, batch identifiers, production screens, and quality indicators accurately while maintaining pace and precision.

Minimum Qualifications

  • 21 years of age or older and able to obtain and maintain any Missouri cannabis facility credential required for the position.
  • Ability to understand and follow written SOPs, work instructions, safety requirements, sanitation practices, and documentation standards.
  • Ability to communicate clearly, work effectively with others, and raise questions or concerns promptly when work, safety, quality, or compliance is unclear.
  • Demonstrated reliability, attention to detail, and ability to perform repetitive hands-on work at a consistent pace.
  • No prior cannabis or packaging experience is required; willingness and ability to learn weighing, filling, sealing, labeling, boxing, sanitation, material handling, and basic quality checks are required.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior experience in packaging, manufacturing, food production, warehousing, cannabis, assembly, quality, or another hands-on work environment is helpful but not required.
  • Familiarity with scales, labels, basic production tools, sanitation, counting, or production records is helpful but may be learned on the job.
